Spatial coherence and the persistence of high diversity in spatially heterogeneous landscapes
Abstract Our planet hosts a variety of highly diverse ecosystems. The persistence of high diversity is generally attributed to factors such as the structure of interactions among species and the dispersal of species in metacommunities. Here, we show that large contiguous landscapes—that are characte...
