Query: A new dominance concept and its application to diversity-stability
  analysis   We introduce a new dominance concept consisting of three new dominance
metrics based on Lloyd's (1967) mean crowding index. The new metrics link
communities and species, whereas existing ones are applicable only to
communities. Our community-level metric is a function of Simpson's diversity
index. For species, our metric quantifies the difference between community
dominance and the dominance of a virtual community whose mean population size
(per species) equals the population size of the focal species. The new metrics
have at least two immediate applications: (i) acting as proxies for diversity
in diversity-stability modeling (ii) replacing population abundance in
reconstructing species dominance networks. The first application is
demonstrated here using data from a longitudinal study of the human vaginal
microbiome, and provides new insights relevant for microbial community
stability and disease etiology.
