An extreme-value approach to detect clumping and an application to tropical forest gap-mosaic dynamics

Although forest tree pattern-dynamics has long been a focus for ecological theory, many aspects of basic analysis remain problematic.This paper describes, examines and illustrates an 'extreme-value' approach to clump detection. Simulations demonstrate that the approach, though simple, is sensitive a...
