Compositional Divergence and Convergence in Local Communities and Spatially Structured Landscapes
Community structure depends on both deterministic and stochastic processes. However, patterns of community dissimilarity (e.g. difference in species composition) are difficult to interpret in terms of the relative roles of these processes. Local communities can be more dissimilar (divergence) than, less dissimilar (convergence) than, or as dissimilar as a hypothetical control based on either nu...

Populations on Fragmented Landscapes with Spatially Structured Heterogeneities: Landscape Generation and Local Dispersal
The goal of this investigation was to study the effects of spatially structured habitat heterogeneities on locally dispersing single-species populations. In this investigation, the environmental heterogeneities were not randomly distributed, but rather were clustered by specifying probabilities of small local configurations of the landscape, as in local structure or pair approximations. This al...
متن کاملThe Effect of Convergence and Divergence on Flow Pattern and Sediment Transport in Lateral Intakes
Water supply at a desired rate at any time to meet the water requirements regardless of river discharge must be considered in the general design of intakes provided that the needs do not exceed the river flow. Due to the lack of necessary information in this field and the importance of sediment transport to the lateral intakes at river bends, this study aimed at understanding the mechanism of t...
متن کاملGap formation following climatic events in spatially structured plant communities
Gaps play a crucial role in maintaining species diversity, yet how community structure and composition influence gap formation is still poorly understood. We apply a spatially structured community model to predict how species diversity and intraspecific aggregation shape gap patterns emerging after climatic events, based on species-specific mortality responses. In multispecies communities, aver...
