By the definitions used in this calculator, Alpha indices are for a single sample of a single region. This is the most typical way to study and measure biodiversity. These indices are calculated with all data provided to the calculator as a single sample, if you are unsure which indices to use, start with Alpha values. Beta diversity indices compare two sample regions for "similarity" and other correlations of biodiversity between two different areas/regions. For example, studies of mammal populations in 2.5 x 105 hectares of the Rocky Mountains compared to mammal populations in 2.5 x 105 hectares of the Alps. This is less common and requires careful, consistent data collection to be useful. Gamma diversity indices calculator for large or global areas, where many samples are being compared, and are the rarest to use in published studies and articles.
