Biodiversity Lab Using the compiled data for the student parking lot, faculty parking lot and the honor student parking lot, calculate the Shannon-Weiner Index, Species Richness measure and the Species Eveness measure of each community. Show all of your calculations. DO NOT USE A CALCULATOR!!!!! Use your calculations to answer the following questions: Shannon-Weiner Index H = -sum (Pi ln[Pi]) Where: Pi = relative abundance = ni / N ni = number of individuals in a species N = total number of individuals in all species Species Richness Measure R = s (the number of species) Species Eveness Measure E = H / ln[R] 1. Which of the communities is most diverse? Why? 2. If all the communities were similar, which one would most likely react negatively to a human disturbance? Why? 3. Did any species dominate in any of the communities? Explain. 4. Were there any errors in your calculations? Explain. 5. What does biodiversity mean to a community? 6. What does the term “megadiversity”mean?
