Latitudinal richness patterns in a temperate forest region: disentangling the effects of evenness, density and aggregation
It is well known that species diversity declines with increasing latitude. However, the underlying causes and mechanisms remain ambiguous due to effects of scale, the shape of the species abundance distributions (SAD), the total number of individuals (N) and the spatial aggregation of individuals (A...
