Disturbance and diversity in experimental microcosms.

Nature - 1 Jan 2000

Buckling A, Kassen R, Bell G, Rainey P B

Abstract excerpt

External agents of mortality (disturbances) occur over a wide range of scales of space and time, and are believed to have large effects on species diversity. The "intermediate disturbance hypothesis", which proposes maximum diversity at intermediate frequencies of disturbance, has received suppor...
