Description | It is generally believed that communities of small organisms or those with small propagules are structured mainly by local niche-based processes and less (or not at all) by dispersal limitation. Conversely, weaker environmental and stronger spatial structure, indicating dispersal limitation, is expected to occur in communities of large organisms. However, spatial and environmental effects have been rarely compared across groups of organisms of different body and propagule size sampled at the same set of sites. |
