The multidimensional space of the integral characteristics of biocenotic assemblages: invariance of its structure relative to various measures (and units) of these characteristics

Abstract

In a virtual multidimensional space with the axes represented by integral characteristics as abundance and size of individuals and parameters of species diversity, the points corresponded to samples from different biocenotic assemblages form similar multilayer domical shapes. There is shown on cited data and original data analysis that such structures are typical for stable state of biocenotic systems and the laws and processes of their forming do not depend on observer - i.e. on measures and units describing the major integral characteristics of these systems.
