Evaluation of species diversity and spatial distribution characteristics of five dominant plant species in Hamoon wetlands
This research aimed to investigate plant species diversity and spatial distribution of five dominant species i.e. Phragmites australis, Tamarix meyeri, Aeluropus littoralis, Aeluropus lagopoides and Cynodon dactylon in Hamoon international wetlands in 2015. To this end, a randomize-systematic sampling method was used according to w pattern by four strip transect at 5000 m2 at each station. The ...
متن کاملMaintenance of Species Diversity by Predation in the Tierra System
One of the ecological theories has proposed that high species diversity can be maintained by predation, and several experimental studies showed that a few predator individuals with positive frequency-dependent behavior were able to maintain the coexistence of two prey types. However, in a natural environment, when a single predator species regulates the diversity of prey species, it is likely t...

متن کاملMechanisms of Maintenance of Species Diversity
■ Abstract The focus of most ideas on diversity maintenance is species coexistence, which may be stable or unstable. Stable coexistence can be quantified by the long-term rates at which community members recover from low density. Quantification shows that coexistence mechanisms function in two major ways: They may be (a) equalizing because they tend to minimize average fitness differences betwe...
