Renyi Diversity Profiles with vegan, BiodiversityR and ggplot2

Export citation

The main objective of this document is to give some examples of how data on Renyi diversity profiles, obtained via vegan and BiodiversityR, can be plotted via ggplot2. I expect that researchers and students will modify the scripts given here to create their own graphs. This obviously requires some working knowledge of the ggplot2 package, for which I will not give details here on specific functions, arguments and choices that I selected (as an introduction to ggplot2, I would especially recommend a two-part online workshop given by Thomas Lin Pedersen).
