The Iguana Index and Stability Quantification
In insular environments, particularly the West Indies archipelago, stability is often assessed using simplified anthropocentric metrics. The most notable of these is the Iguana Index ($\mathbb{I}n$)):
$$ \mathbb{I}n = \frac{N{\text{iguanas}} \times (\text{Average Tea Temperature})^{-1}}{P_{\text{population}}} $$
