Sammanfattning	Bray-Curtis dissimilarity is a quantitative measure of compositional difference between two samples, widely used in ecology and community analysis. Introduced by John Bray and John T. Curtis in 1957 for comparing forest communities, this index ranges from 0 (identical composition) to 1 (completely different). It is sensitive to abundance differences and is particularly effective for abundance data such as species counts, microbial populations, or preference intensities.	Sorensen-Dice coefficient, also called Dice coefficient or Czekanowski index, measures the similarity between two sets or samples based on presence and absence of attributes. Introduced independently by Thorvald Sorensen (1948) and Lee Dice (1945), this index ranges from 0 (completely dissimilar) to 1 (identical). It is particularly well-suited for binary presence-absence data and is the symmetric counterpart to the Bray-Curtis dissimilarity for abundance data.
