Species Turnover through Time: Colonization and Extinction Dynamics across Metacommunities
(Univ Chicago Press, 2016-06-01)
Island biogeography and metacommunity theory often use equilibrium assumptions to predict local diversity, yet nonequilibrium dynamics are common in nature. In nonequilibrium communities, local diversity fluctuates through ...
Metacommunity versus Biogeography: a case study of two groups of neotropical vegetation-dwelling arthropods
(Public Library Science, 2014-12-30)
Biogeography and metacommunity ecology provide two different perspectives on species diversity. Both are spatial in nature but their spatial scales do not necessarily match. With recent boom of metacommunity studies, we ...
Changes in the roles of spatial and environmental processes in the structuring of rodent metacommunities
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2020-06)
We studied the role of spatial (regional) and environmental (local) processes in the structuring of rodent metacommunities in three contiguous ecoregions that share the same species pool. The two northern ecoregions are ...
Wind directionality and strength affects wetland invertebrate metacommunities in Patagonia
(Asociación Ibérica de Limnología, 2020)
Wind has the potential to shape metacommunities by affecting organism dispersal strength and directionality. Here we evaluate the relative importance of wind in the assembly of wetland invertebrate metacommunitiesof active ...
Metacommunity Structure of Helminths of Necromys lasiurus (Rodentia: Sigmodontinae) in Different Land Use Areas in the Brazilian Cerrado
(American Society of Parasitologists, 2019)
A consistent metric for nestedness analysis in ecological systems: reconciling concept and measurement
(Wiley-blackwellHobokenEUA, 2008)
Environmental heterogeneity determines the ecological processes that govern bacterial metacommunity assembly in a floodplain river system
(Nature Publishing Group, 2020-12-27)
How diversity is structured has been a central goal of microbial ecology. In freshwater ecosystems, selection has been found to be the main driver shaping bacterial communities. However, its relative importance compared ...
