This project analyzes the biodiversity of 21 European lakes that were part of a bigger project to analyze the biodiversity of lakes across Europe, which led to a publication:
Boenigk J., Wodniok S., Bock C., Beisser D., Hempel C., Grossmann L., Lange A. and Jensen M. (2018): Geographic distance and mountain ranges structure freshwater protist communities on a European scalе. Metabarcoding and Metagenomics 2:e21519. https://doi.org/10.3897/mbmg.2.21519
Involves rarefaction curves:
PCAs and dendrograms:
Heatmaps:
And geographic interpolation of abundances:
