DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7952
Abstract: Abstract Vegetation complexity is an important predictor of animal species diversity. Specifically, taller vegetation should provide more potential ecological niches and thus harbor communities with higher species richness and functional diversity (FD). Resource use behavior… read more here.
