An experimental test of the area–heterogeneity tradeoff
A fundamental property of ecosystems is a tradeoff between the number and size of habitats:
as the number of habitats within a fixed area increases, the average area per habitat must …

From plots to islands: species diversity at different scales
S Sfenthourakis, M Panitsa - Journal of Biogeography, 2012 - Wiley Online Library

Disentangling direct and indirect effects of island area on plant functional trait distributions
Aim Species diversity on islands generally increases with island area. This might arise either
from direct effects of island area via neutral assembly processes or from indirect effects via …
