Calculating Distance Matrices with Weighted Combinations of Functional Traits and Taxonomic Distinctness

The FD package includes methods for calculating the weighted Gower dissimilarity index, through methods described in A distance‐based framework for measuring functional diversity from multiple traits. The vegan package includes methods for calculating taxonomic distances, through methods described i...
