Nr of total & only dominant found FCM groups
Found Clusters
The number of found clusters expresses three variables. All found clusters. All found clusters containing at least a minimum amount of particles. All found most numerical dominant clusters accounting for 97.5% of the total concentration (=Rutten index)
Particles with similar optical properties are clustered into groups or clusters. Sometimes, these clusters contain pure phytoplankton species of one kind, but it is also possible that it consist of several fytoplankton species due to similar optical properties.
The Rutten index is an expression of a value, which represents the dominance of found FCM groups.
