The latitudinal gradient of beta diversity in relation to climate and topography for mammals in North America (2009, methodology): “Beta diversity can be measured with respect to geographical distance or differences in environmental variables (e.g. Qian et al ., 2005; Gaston et al ., 2007; Qian & Ricklefs, 2007).”
Navigating the multiple meanings of β diversity: a roadmap for the practicing ecologist. (2011, background): “The estimated slope, in absolute value, is a direct measure (on a log scale) of turnover (¶y ⁄ ¶x; Fig. 2a; Nekola & White 1999; Vellend 2001; Qian et al. 2005; Qian & Ricklefs 2007): the steeper the slope (larger negative values in the exponential decay), the more rapid the turnover.”
Does pollen-assemblage richness reflect floristic richness? A review of recent developments and future challenges (2016, neutral): “Diversity partitioning is increasingly being used in ecology (e.g. Legendre et al., 976 2005, 2009; Głowacki et al., 2011), biogeography (e.g. Qian et al., 2005), conservation biology (e.g. 977 Jost et al., 2010), and Deep-time palaeoecology (e.g. Patzkowsky and Holland, 2007; Mander et al., 978…”
Drivers of β‐diversity along latitudinal gradients revisited (2013, result): “Previous studies (e.g. Qian et al., 2005) have shown that high g-diversity of a region results, at least in part, from high b-diversity within the region.”
Disentangling distance decay of similarity from richness gradients: response to Soininen et al. 2007 (2007, background): “on large scale beta diversity patterns is available (but see Qian et al. 2005). In a recent contribution, Soininen et al. (2007) performed an interesting meta-analysis searching for relationships between different predictors and the decay of similarity with geographic distance across a wide range of”
Island-like radiation of Saussurea (Asteraceae: Cardueae) triggered by uplifts of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. (2009, background): “Furthermore, the high diversity in this region is strongly concentrated in a few genera, especially Cremanthodium, Gentiana, Ligularia, Peducularis, Rhododendron, Rheum and Saussurea (Wu, 1987), and the mechanisms responsible for the establishment of such high diversity have interested botanists for”
Conservation biological control and enemy diversity on a landscape scale (2007, background): “Patches of similar habitat separated by large distances (10–100 km) may have different admixtures of species because of local sampling of the regional species pool and limited movements of species between habitats (Nekola and White, 1999; Qian et al., 2005).”
Environment, dispersal and patterns of species similarity (2006, background): “Since the publication of Nekola &White (1999), an increasing number of studies have documented patterns of distance decay in ecological communities (e.g. Spencer et al., 2002; Tuomisto et al., 2003; Qian et al., 2005).”
Contrasting effects of natural and anthropogenic stressors on beta diversity in river organisms (2013, background): “The assessment of beta diversity has now become a central topic in macroecology and is progressively identifying key patterns at broad spatial extents as well as the mechanisms that might be responsible (Qian et al., 2005).”
Patterns of beta diversity in Europe: the role of climate, land cover and distance across scales (2012, background): “, 2010), whereas others indicated geographic distance to be the main determinant (Tuomisto et al., 2003; Qian et al., 2005); a number of studies found that beta diversity was best explained by the interplay between the two (Baselga & Jiménez-Valverde, 2007; Qian & Ricklefs, 2007).”
Partitioning the turnover and nestedness components of beta diversity (2010, background): “…to dispersal limitation and other historical effects (Nekola & White, 1999; Condit et al., 2002; Duivenvoorden et al., 2002; Tuomisto et al., 2003; Qian et al., 2005), but clear inference on the processes involved is prohibited by the mixing of the antithetic processes of species loss and species…”
Species Turnover along Abiotic and Biotic Gradients: Patterns in Space Equal Patterns in Time? (2010, background): “Beta diversity—that is, the turnover of community composition from place to place or from time to time— especially has been actively studied in recent years (Lennon et al. 2001, Koleff et al. 2003a, Qian et al. 2005, 2009, Qian and Ricklefs 2007, Soininen et al. 2007a, 2007b).”
