Plant diversity patterns along an elevation gradient: the relative impact of environmental and spatial variation on plant diversity and assembly in arid and semi-arid regions
The spatial distribution pattern of species diversity and its driving variables are essential to understanding how biodiversity will respond to the threat of future climatic instability. This study examines how the alpha and beta diversity indices vary along the elevation gradient and which factors...
