Unimodal Relationships of Understory Alpha and Beta Diversity along Chronosequence in Coppiced and Unmanaged Beech Forests [PDF]
, 2020 Patterns of diversity across spatial scales in forest successions are being overlooked, despite their importance for developing sustainable management practices. Here, we tested the recently proposed U-shaped biodiversity model of forest succession.

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022 Environmental filtration and spatial processes are associated with variation in ecological communities and biodiversity; however, their relative importance to species beta diversity at different sampling scales has not been fully explored in desert plant

Boosted Beta regression. [PDF]
, 2013 Regression analysis with a bounded outcome is a common problem in applied statistics. Typical examples include regression models for percentage outcomes and the analysis of ratings that are measured on a bounded scale.

Change in beta diversity of riverine fish during and after supra-seasonal drought
, 2022 Context A core theme in ecohydrology is understanding how hydrology affects spatial variation in the composition of species assemblages (i.e., beta diversity).

N90, a Diversity Index Sensitive to Variations in Beta Diversity Components [PDF]
Diversity, 2021 Species diversity in a community is mainly related to the number and abundance of species that form it. N90 is a recently developed diversity index based on the results of the similarity percentage (SIMPER) analysis that represents the number of species contributing up to ninety percent of within-group similarity in a group of samples.

, 2020 Herbivorous insects that feed internally on plant tissues depend on their host plants as food resource and immediate habitat. The parasitoids of these herbivores, in turn, depend both on their host herbivores and on the herbivores' host plants.

β-diversity of deep-sea holothurians and asteroids along a bathymetric gradient (NE Atlantic) [PDF]
, 2014 Measuring and understanding patterns of ?-diversity remain major challenges in community ecology. Recently, ?-diversity has been shown to consist of 2 distinct components: (1) spatial turnover and (2) species loss leading to nestedness.

, 2023 Aim: Determining drivers of beta diversity is a hugely complex task, as it involves processes acting synergistically across multiple scales. We employed a large-scale standardized protocol to tease apart the environmental and spatial processes driving ...

, 2020 Understanding the diversity patterns of phytoplankton assemblages in coastal lagoons is clearly important for water management. In this study, we explored alpha and beta diversity patterns in phytoplankton communities across five Mediterranean lagoons ...

Undersampling and the measurement of beta diversity
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2013 Summary Beta diversity is a conceptual link between diversity at local and regional scales. Various additional methodologies of quantifying this and related phenomena have been applied. Among them, measures of pairwise (dis)similarity of sites are particularly popular. Undersampling, i.e.
