• Fidelity of variation in species composition and diversity partitioning by death assemblages: time-averaging transfers diversity from beta to alpha levels (2009, background): “…demographic and environmental stochasticity, ecological succession and/or local environmental change (e.g., Preston 1960; Fürsich and Aberhan 1990; Bennington 2003); and (3) providing opportunities for mixing remains via ‘‘within-habitat’’ postmortem transport, which will tend to reduce average…”
