Consistent patterns of elevational change in tree taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity across Malesian mountain forests (2013, methodology): “Between-site changes in taxonomic diversity (b-diversity) were investigated according to the assumption that b-diversity is a function of a-diversity and c-diversity (Tuomisto, 2010a).”
Niche breadth, rarity and ecological characteristics within a regional flora spanning large environmental gradients (2012, background): “In the recent literature, several authors have attempted to gather all these beta-diversity indices into a more comprehensive framework in order to guide ecologists in their choices (Jost, 2006, 2007; de Bello et al., 2010; Tuomisto, 2010a,b; Anderson et al., 2011).”
Undersampling and the measurement of beta diversity (2013, methodology): “…as link between species diversity at local and regional scales (i.e. alpha and gamma diversity), but many studies employed, explicitly or implicitly, quite different ideas on how to quantify the phenomenon, e.g. various (dis)similarity metrics between pairs of communities (Tuomisto 2010a).”
Temporal β diversity—A macroecological perspective (2019, background): “Tuomisto (2010a, 2010b), provides a comprehensive and thoughtful overview of diversity (in its spatial context), in which she stresses the need to use terms carefully while being critical of the use of ‘ diversity’ to cover a range of approaches that lie outside the precise methodology she…”
