Revisiting the dimensionality of biological diversity
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Ecography"
DOI: 10.1111/ecog.04574
Abstract: Biodiversity can be represented by different dimensions. While many diversity metrics try to capture the variation of these dimensions they also lead to a ‘fragmentation’ of the concept of biodiversity itself. Developing a unified measure… read more here.
