Impacts of vegetation properties and temperature characteristics on species richness patterns in drylands: Case study from Xinjiang

Impacts of vegetation properties and temperature characteristics on species richness patterns in drylands: Case study from Xinjiang

Energy availability at trophic and hydrologic level dominates species richness gradients by constraining food resources, and regulating population sizes and extinction rates. Remote sensing datasets have mapped vegetation productivities as a proxy for energy availability, for example, using Dynamic...
