Lake regionalization and diatom metacommunity structuring in tropical South America

Lake regionalization and diatom metacommunity structuring in tropical South America

Abstract Lakes and their topological distribution across Earth's surface impose ecological and evolutionary constraints on aquatic metacommunities. In this study, we group similar lake ecosystems as metacommunity units influencing diatom community structure. We assembled a database of 195 lakes...
