Drivers of tropical rainforest composition and alpha diversity patterns over a 2,520 m altitudinal gradient

Abstract Aim We sought to determine the relationship of forest composition and alpha diversity (the species diversity of a local assemblage) to altitude, soil, and spatial factors over a 440–2,950 m a.s.l gradient. Location Altitudinal gradient on the Caribbean slope of the Talamanca Cordillera, Cos...
