  1. Total abundance (N)number of individualsSpecies richness (S) number of species S ≤ N

  2. Rank-abundance distribution (RAD) Abundance Rank in abundance

  3. Rank-abundance distribution (RAD) Abundance Rank in abundance

  4. n1+n2+…+nS = N Abundance Rank in abundance

  5. N=50, S=10 16,958 forms of the RAD Abundance Rank in abundance

  6. The feasible set(all possible shapes of the RAD) 16,958 shapes for Q = 50 & N = 10 Abundance Rank in abundance

  7. Mapping the feasible set N=1,000 S=80 ln(abundance) Rank in abundance

  8. The center of the feasible set N=500 S=50 ln(abundance) Rank in abundance
