z, c & d: The parameters of PL- and/or PLEC-DAR models, in which z of PL-DAR model is the scaling parameter, and c can be viewed as the number of species equivalent to diversity in the first unit of area to accrue. g: The pair-wise diversity overlap. R: The correlation coefficient to judge the goodness-of-fitting of PL or PLEC models. P-value: The parameter to judge the success or failure of the fitting of PL or PLEC models (P≤0.05 indicates successful model fitting). N: The number of successful fittings out of 100 re-samplings. A max: The number of accrued individuals corresponding to the maximal accrual diversity. D max: The maximal accrual diversity. SE: Standard error. Min: Minimum. Max: Maximum. N/A: Not available.
