Description: The “TAD” package compiled an analytical framework based
        on an analysis of the shape of the trait abundance
        distributions to better understand community assembly
        processes, and predict community dynamics under environmental
        changes. This framework mobilized a study of the relationship
        between the moments describing the shape of the distributions:
        the skewness and the kurtosis (SKR). The SKR allows the
        identification of commonalities in the shape of trait
        distributions across contrasting communities. Derived from the
        SKR, we developed mathematical parameters that summarise the
        complex pattern of distributions by assessing (i) the R², (ii)
        the Y-intercept, (iii) the slope, (iv) the functional stability
        of community (TADstab), and, (v) the distance from specific
        distribution families (i.e., the distance from the skew-uniform
        family a limit to the highest degree of evenness: TADeve).
