Biology
Chromosome Map Distance Calculator
Convert recombination frequency into genetic map distance in centimorgans (cM) between two loci on a chromosome. Used in linkage analysis and genetic mapping experiments.

Biology
Shannon Diversity Index Calculator
Computes the Shannon diversity index (H′) from the individual counts of up to three species in an ecological community. Use it in field ecology to compare habitat quality or monitor biodiversity over time.
