On the opposite edge of the latitudinal range lie the areas with highest biodiversity, caused by high proportion of broadleaf species in community compositions.
The parallelisms in the secular trend of Hyderabad, Alibag and Sabhawala indicate that the feature has a broad regional coverage, whose southern latitudinal extent may be just above the edge of the equatorial electrojet belt.
A statistical study shows that the source region is located near the equatorward edge of the cleft/cusp region, within a latitudinal range of around 1.5°.
The edges of the structure (crests) are characterised by steep, latitudinal gradients in TEC, which are temporally as well as spatially variable.
Over the past 30 years, a geographic contraction of the southern range edge of this species has occurred, with a northward latitudinal shift of approximately 1,250 km.
Species diversity was greatest at the edge of all except UCM margins and there was a strong latitudinal decline in overall diversity and rare species.
The JS drilling sites spanned both latitudinal and depth transects in order to explore linkages between atmospheric and oceanic processes, along the edge of the Eurasian continent, the Korean Peninsula, and the Japanese islands, and to investigate regional responses to far-field forcing.
In contrast, the rear edge populations at low-latitudinal limits of species' range can be slightly older because of latitudinal displacement of the distribution range, or can be more stable and the oldest populations within a species range, because of the persistence of relict populations during the climate changes.
It has a broad latitudinal and elevational distribution covering geographic ranges from northern Indochina to southern Siberia and from the eastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau to coastal China and the island of Taiwan.
