Habitat and landscape factors associated with the nestedness of waterbird assemblages and wetland habitats in South Brazil

2018-12-01

Abstract excerpt

The recognition of patterns in metacommunities and the elucidation of the processes responsible for them are major goals of community ecology. The nestedness of local communities based on species occurrence was initially postulated as resulting from selective extinction – species‐poor sites are subsets of species‐rich sites. Alternative mechanisms that could generate this pattern include passive sampling, selectiv...
