註釋

Spatial environmental heterogeneity (EH) is regarded as one of the most important drivers of species richness gradients worldwide. Its association with increased available niche space, provision of refuges, and opportunities for diversification through isolation and divergent adaptation are thought to promote species coexistence, persistence, and diversification. The exploration of potential positive effects of EH on species richness has intrigued ecologists and evolutionary biologists for decades. Consequently, a large body of literature exists on the relationship between EH and species ri ...
