Sentence examples for turnover diversity from inspiring English sources

Interestingly, significant longitudinal differences could be observed between the Western, Central, and Eastern Mediterranean, with a turnover diversity reaching 99%, indicating high regional variability [95].

Total (regional) diversity was partitioned into local α diversity (i.e., average diversity within a given sample) and among-sample β diversity (i.e., turnover diversity).

The turnover diversity (as % Bray-Curtis dissimilarity; [277]) was estimated as the dissimilarity in species composition at different depths and longitudes toward the SIMPER analysis (based on the Bray-Curtis similarity index).

A comparative analysis of bacterial diversity from different oceanic regions highlights the peculiarity of the Mediterranean: the turnover diversity between Mediterranean and Atlantic sediments is about 85%, and reaches 97% between the Mediterranean and the South Pacific.

Whittaker [221] defined α-diversity as the number of species found in a sample (or within a habitat), β-diversity as the extent of species replacement along environmental gradients (termed "turnover diversity" by Gray [222]), and γ-diversity as the diversity of the whole region.

These findings suggest that the deep-sea nematode assemblages of the Tyrrhenian Sea are highly site specific (i.e., they can vary at a regional scale within the same basin), and confirm previous studies that have indicated that the deep Mediterranean Sea can be characterized by extremely high turnover diversity among sites within the same basin [61].

It involves the calculation of three indices: similarity, turnover and diversity as well as the detailed analysis of trajectories of change.

The paper provides an overview of this literature and highlights the particular importance of population turnover, increased diversity and stretched social networks.

We test Janzen's (1967) hypothesis that the low temperature seasonality in the modern tropics accounts for increased local species turnover (beta diversity) across montane landscapes relative to those of the more seasonal Temperate Zone.

Explore geographic turnover (beta diversity) of pollinator species across the host plant's wide natural latitudinal range.

Variable canyon alpha-diversity and high rates of species turnover (beta-diversity), particularly for polychaetes, suggest that canyons play important roles in maintaining high levels of regional biodiversity in the extremely oligotrophic system of the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre.
