Climate reverses directionality in the richness–abundance relationship across the World’s main forest biomes

Climate reverses directionality in the richness–abundance relationship across the World’s main forest biomes

Correlations between tree species diversity and tree abundance are well established, but the direction of the relationship is unresolved. Here the authors use path models to estimate plausible causal pathways in the diversity-abundance relationship across 23 global forests regions, finding a lack of...
