Intrinsic ecological dynamics drive biodiversity turnover in model metacommunities

Abstract: 1 Turnover of species composition through time is frequently observed in nature. 2 Often explained by changes in abiotic conditions or regional species pools, 3 compositional turnover is employed as an indicator of external stress in nat-4 ural ecosystems. Theoretically, the possibility of turnover driven by intrinsic 5 ecological dynamics-species interactions, dispersal-is also known, but what 6 role such autonomous turnover plays in nature remains unclear. Expanding 7 the boundaries of metacommunity model… Show more

“…1A) was modelled by randomly sampling Cartesian coordinates from a uniform distribution in the range where N is the number of sites. As in previous studies (O’Sullivan et al, 2019, 2021a), we linked nearby sites using a Gabriel graph (Gabriel and Sokal, 1969).…”

“…Metacommunity dynamics were modelled using a spatial extension to the classic Lotka-Volterra community model (O’Sullivan et al, 2019, 2021a) where B ix represents the biomass of the i th species in the x th site. R ix are the intrinsic growth rates, which vary across the landscape.…”
