Abstract

The biotic package calculates a range of commonly used UK freshwater invertebrate biotic indices, based on family level identification. Indices that can be calculated are BMWP (and associated N-Taxa and ASPT), Whalley revised BWMP, habitat-specific BMWP, WHPT (presence-only and abundance-weighted), LIFE, PSI and AWIC. Links to the definitions of these indices are given at the end of the text.
