Seasonality drives herbaceous community beta diversity in lithologically different rocky outcrops in Brazil by Jaquelina Nunes, Pedro Villa, Andreza Neri, Wesley Silva, Carlos E.G.R. Schaefer

“…Background and aims – Seasonality exerts strong controlling forces on species diversity in herbaceous species communities, however, this control process remains poorly understood in tropical lithologically different rocky outcrops. We aim to investigate the effect of seasonality and the variability of soil properties on changes in the herbaceous species richness and species composition of two different herbaceous species communities on rocky outcrops in Brazil. …”
