Bio Ecological Genomics Biodiversity Metrics

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
Quantifies biodiversity from species abundance/incidence tables using Hill numbers (iNEXT) with coverage-based rarefaction-extrapolation (Chao & Jost 2012), asymptotic richness via Chao1/ACE/jackknife as a lower bound, Baselga turnover/nestedness partition with the Podani alternative as sensitivity check, mandatory Hellinger transformation before ordination (Legendre & Gallagher 2001), Faith PD and SES_MPD/SES_MNTD with explicit null-model choice, and Maire 2015 functional-diversity dimensionality optimization. Use when comparing diversity across sites with unequal sampling effort, picking the right richness estimator for singleton-heavy amplicon data, partitioning beta diversity into turnover vs nestedness, reporting Hill-number effective species counts rather than raw entropies, computing SES_MPD with explicit null-model justification, or deciding whether to apply standard metrics to compositional amplicon data. Not for clinical 16S microbiome diversity (see microbiome/diversity-analysis).

What this skill does

Bio Ecological Genomics Biodiversity Metrics is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/bio-ecological-genomics-biodiversity-metrics/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when comparing diversity across sites with unequal sampling effort, picking the right richness estimator for singleton-heavy amplicon data, partitioning beta diversity into turnover vs nestedness, reporting Hill-number effective species counts rather than raw entropies, computing SES_MPD with explicit null-model justification, or deciding whether to apply standard metrics to compositional amplicon data. Not for clinical 16S microbiome diversity (see microbiome/diversity-analysis).

Who uses this skill

The Bio Ecological Genomics Biodiversity Metrics Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 119,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Bio Ecological Genomics Biodiversity Metrics Claude Code skill?
Install via the ClaudSkills desktop app (one click) or copy SKILL.md from the source repository to ~/.claude/skills/bio-ecological-genomics-biodiversity-metrics/SKILL.md and restart Claude Code. Both flows are detailed at claudskills.com/install/.
What does the Bio Ecological Genomics Biodiversity Metrics skill do?
Quantifies biodiversity from species abundance/incidence tables using Hill numbers (iNEXT) with coverage-based rarefaction-extrapolation (Chao & Jost 2012), asymptotic richness via Chao1/ACE/jackknife as a lower bound, Baselga turnover/nestedness partition with the Podani alternative as sensitivity check, mandatory Hellinger transformation before ordination (Legendre & Gallagher 2001), Faith PD and SES_MPD/SES_MNTD with explicit null-model choice, and Maire 2015 functional-diversity dimensionality optimization.

Not for clinical 16S microbiome diversity (see microbiome/diversity-analysis).
Is this skill free to install?
Yes. ClaudSkills is an open registry — every skill keeps its source repository's license, and manual install via copy is free. ClaudSkills Pro ($9/mo, $79/yr, or $149 one-time) adds one-click install via the desktop app and a multi-signal Quality Score.
When should I use the Bio Ecological Genomics Biodiversity Metrics skill?
Use Bio Ecological Genomics Biodiversity Metrics when your Claude Code task falls under the General category — specifically in the general misc area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Bio Ecological Genomics Biodiversity Metrics" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/general/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Bio Ecological Genomics Biodiversity Metrics skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Bio Ecological Genomics Biodiversity Metrics is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the General category.
