Measuring the shape of mortality across animals and plants: Alternatives to H entropy metrics reveal hidden type IV survivorship curves and associations with parental care at macro-ecological scales. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 We revisit the classic framework of survivorship curves and test whether commonly used entropy measures of these curves are appropriate for contemporary comparative analysis. We show that entropy measures are not appropriate for wide‐scale taxonomic analysis and that entropy measures may mask important macroecological patterns.
