Embracing scale‐dependence to achieve a deeper understanding of biodiversity and its change across communities
Because biodiversity is multidimensional and scale‐dependent, it is challenging to estimate
its change. However, it is unclear (1) how much scale‐dependence matters for empirical …

Quantifying phylogenetic beta diversity: distinguishing between 'true'turnover of lineages and phylogenetic diversity gradients
The evolutionary dissimilarity between communities (phylogenetic beta diversity PBD) has
been increasingly explored by ecologists and biogeographers to assess the relative roles of …

The dynamic habitat indices (DHIs) from MODIS and global biodiversity
Remotely sensed data can help to identify both suitable habitat for individual species, and
environmental conditions that foster species richness, which is important when predicting …

Global variation in the beta diversity of lake macrophytes is driven by environmental heterogeneity rather than latitude
Aim We studied global variation in beta diversity patterns of lake macrophytes using regional
data from across the world. Specifically, we examined (1) how beta diversity of aquatic …

Contrasting effects of natural and anthropogenic stressors on beta diversity in river organisms
C Gutiérrez‐Cánovas, A Millán… - Global Ecology and …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Aim We hypothesized that mechanisms underlying beta diversity in rivers would differ
between gradients where (1) natural stressors result in progressive species turnover with …

Habitat heterogeneity drives the geographical distribution of beta diversity: the case of N ew Z ealand stream invertebrates
To define whether the beta diversity of stream invertebrate communities in N ew Z ealand
exhibits geographical variation unexplained by variation in gamma diversity and, if so, what …

A comparison of Dynamic Habitat Indices derived from different MODIS products as predictors of avian species richness
Understanding past and current patterns of species richness is essential for predicting how
these patterns may be affected by future global change. The species energy hypothesis …
