Analysis of the overall nestedness of the waterbird metacommunity studied during the breeding and wintering seasons.

Qualitative Matrix: the values are based on the overall qualitative matrix (a species presence or absence in a site within 28 years). Simulated T/NODF is in each case the average of 1000 Monte Carlo simulations run in ANINHADO. SD  =  standard deviation of simulated T. CI = 95% confidence interval of simulated T/NODF. Z  =  standardized effect size of T (see text). NODFr  =  Relative NODF (see text).
Quantitative Matrix: the values are based on the overall quantitative matrix (an average of species abundance in a site within 28 years). Simulated WNODF is in each case the average of 1000 Monte Carlo simulations run with the NODF software. SD  =  standard deviation of simulated WNODF. CI = 95% confidence interval of simulated WNODF. Z'  =  standardized effect size of WNODF (see text).
