Midpoint attractor models resolve the mid‐elevation peak in Himalayan plant species richness
Ecography, Volume 44, Issue 11, Page 1665-1677, November 2021., 2021 The midpoint attractor (MPA) models of species richness integrate a unimodal environmental favourability gradient and neutral effects forced by geometric constraints and thus extend the ecologically neutral mid‐domain model. However, both alternative MPA algorithms assume that underlying environmental favourability peaks within the modelling domain ...
