Physical determinants of richness, diversity, evenness and abundance in natural aquatic microcosms
Abstract
Histories, biotic factors and abiotic factors interact to determine biodiversity. A comparison of systems formed over a range of physical conditions may help to evaluate the role of physical factors in determining community structure. We investigated abiotic determinants of species richness, abundance, biomass, diversity and evenness using a series of erosional rock pools on the northern coast of Jamaica. Aquatic invertebrate community data …
