Patchiness in resource distribution mitigates habitat loss: insights from high-shore grazers
Theory predicts that coarse-grained heterogeneity in the spatial distribution of resources benefits the abundances of exploiter populations that are vulnerable to habitat loss, in contrast to fine-grained habitat fragmentation. This generic principle has never been tested empirically, despite its po...
