The importance of grain and cut-off size in shaping tree beta diversity along an elevational gradient in the northwest of Colombia
Abstract Background Species turnover (β-diversity) along elevational gradients is one of the most important concepts in plant ecology. However, there is a lack of consensus about the main driving mechanisms of tree β-diversity at local scales in very diverse ecosystems (e.g., Andean mountains), as w...
