Knowledge graph centered on species-area relationship with 39 nodes and 103 connections. Top connected: Potentilla, Erigeron, elevational gradients, Artemisia, Mertensia.

Description

Nested sampling design to construct species-area relationships across multiple spatial scales by subdividing plots into equal-area quadrats and averaging species counts across equivalent areas.

Typical Equipment

  • Python with numpy, scipy, matplotlib libraries

Output Measurements

  • species-area relationship slopes
  • spatial scale effects on species richness
