True versus Estimated Pairwise Distance. In each density plot, the x-axis is the true pairwise distance and the y-axis is the estimated pairwise distance between communities. We used Spearman’s correlations coefficients (inset, with 95% confidence intervals in parentheses) to test for monotonicity (consistency) of the estimates to true. The left column is pairwise distance as calculated by Weighted UniFrac distance. The right column is pairwise distances as calculated by double principle coordinate analysis (DPCoA)
