Bray–Curtis dissimilarity

In ecology and biology, the Bray–Curtis dissimilarity, named after J. Roger Bray and John T. Curtis,〔Bray, J. R. and J. T. Curtis. 1957. An ordination of upland forest communities of southern Wisconsin. Ecological Monographs 27:325-349.〕 is a statistic used to quantify the compositional dissimilarity between two different sites, based on counts at each site. As defined by Bray and Curtis, the index of dissimilarity is:
: BC_ = 1 - \frac
Where C_ is the sum of the lesser values for only those species in common between both sites. S_i and S_j are the total number of specimens counted at both sites. The index reduces to 1-2C/2 = 1-C where abundances at each site are expressed as a percentage. Further treatment can be found in Legendre & Legendre〔Pierre Legendre & Louis Legendre. 1998. (Numerical ecology ). 2nd English edition. Elsevier Science BV, Amsterdam.〕
The Bray–Curtis dissimilarity is directly related to the Sørensen similarity index QS_ between the same sites:
: \overline_ = 1 - QS_ .
The Bray–Curtis dissimilarity is bound between 0 and 1, where 0 means the two sites have the same composition (that is they share all the species), and 1 means the two sites do not share any species. At sites with where BC is intermediate (e.g. BC = 0.5) this index differs from other commonly used indices.〔Bloom, S.A. 1981. Similarity indices in community studies: Potential Pitfalls. Marine Ecology--Progress Series 5: 125-128.〕
The Bray–Curtis dissimilarity is often erroneously called a distance. It is not a distance since it does not satisfy triangle inequality, and should always be called a dissimilarity to avoid confusion. A software implementation for large samples is provided as part of the mothur software package.〔 http://www.mothur.org/wiki/Braycurtis 〕
