TABLE 1. Correlation coefficients between series of proportional change (Δt/t-1) of subsampled diversity based on stratigraphic opinions with one-time bin versus two-time bin minimum resolution. Generalised differencing was used to reduce effects of autocorrelations (McKinney, 1990; Alroy, 2000; Novack-Gottshall and Miller, 2003). Abbreviations: StS: Stage Slices, Bergström et al. (2009); TS: Time Slices, Webby et al. (2004).
Pearson | Spearman | |
TS resolution one / TS resolution <two | 0.940 | 0.918 |
StS resolution one /StS resolution <two | 0.951 | 0.818 |
Stage resolution = one /Stage resolution <2 | 0.988 | 0.886 |
