This repositiory contains the code to run the case study example analysis from the manuscript:

McGlinn, D.J., T. Engel, S.A. Blowes, N.J. Gotelli, T.M. Knight, B.J. McGill, N.J. Sanders, and J.M. Chase. A multiscale framework for disentangling the roles of evenness, density and aggregation on diversity gradients.

The case study is a reanalysis of ant community data collected in the Great Smokies National Park.
