Patterns of plant diversity in seven temperate forest types of Western Himalaya, India (2016, background): “Changes in species diversity along elevational gradient have been the subject of numerous studies (Lomolino 2001; Fetene et al 2006), most of them found a hump shaped distribution, showing peak species diversity near the middle of the gradient (Austrheim 2002; Zhang and Ru 2010).”
Biodiversity of Palaearctic grasslands: a synthesis (2014, background): “In spite of the supporting effect of increasing nutrient availability on biomass production and the above-mentioned positive productivity–diversity relationship, negative effects of excess nutrients (especially phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium) have been reported from various types of grassland ve”
Effects of altitude and topography on species richness of vascular plants, bryophytes and lichens in alpine communities (2006, background): “Little is known and has been summarized on bryophyte and macrolichen richness, but see Pintado et al. (2001), Austrheim (2002), Negi & Upreti (2000) and Gradstein & Pócs (1989).”
