Quantifying multiple-site compositional turnover in an Afrotemperate forest, using zeta diversity

Abstract Background Species turnover is typically measured by partitioning diversity components into alpha and pairwise beta diversity. However, alpha and beta components cannot express the full spectrum of multiple-site compositional turnover. To this end, zeta diversity has been proposed as an ext...
