Good day,

I am analyzing the diversity of 24 communities divided into 4 groups. For each community, I have performed rarefaction and calculated diversity indices. I am now seeking to compare the diversity indices between these groups (e.g., 6 indices from Group A versus 6 indices from Group B). While a simple t-test would suffice, given that the indices are expressed as confidence intervals due to the rarefaction process, I am looking for an appropriate statistical approach to account for these intervals.

Thank you for your assistance.
