Effects of dispersal mode on the environmental and spatial correlates of nestedness and species turnover in pond communities
Open accessAbstract
Advances in metacommunity theory have made a significant contribution to understanding the drivers of variation in biological communities. However, there has been limited empirical research exploring the expression of metacommunity theory for two fundamental components of beta diversity: nestedness and species turnover. In this paper, we examine the influence of local environmental and a range of spatial variables (hydrological connectivity, proximity and overall spatial structure) on total beta diversity and the nestedness and turnover components of beta diversity for the entire macroinvertebrate community and active and passively dispersing taxa within pond habitats. High beta diversity almost entirely reflects patterns of species turnover (replacement) rather than nestedness (differences in species richness) in our dataset. Local environmental variables were the main drivers of total beta diversity, nestedness and turnover when the entire community was considered and for both active and passively dispersing taxa. The influence of spatial processes on passively dispersing taxa, total beta diversity and nestedness was significantly greater than for actively dispersing taxa. Our results suggest that species sorting (local environmental variables) operating through niche processes was the primary mechanism driving total beta diversity, nestedness and turnover for the entire community and active and passively dispersing taxa. In contrast, spatial factors (hydrological connectivity, proximity and spatial eigenvectors) only exerted a secondary influence on the nestedness and turnover components of beta diversity.

Some studies have examined pond communities at a national scale, but it is not clear whether similar ecological patterns and processes occur at continental or global scales.
“Some studies have examined pond communities at a national-scale (Hill et al. 2017), but it is not clear whether similar ecological patterns and processes occur at continental or global scales.”
From Pond ecology and conservation: research priorities and knowledge gaps (2021) · cites this paper as Hill et al. 2017
The Study area section says the paper examined 95 ponds in Leicestershire, UK, within a region of about 280 km². That is a regional study, not a national-scale examination of pond communities. The citation is attached to the national-scale characterization; the sentence's uncertainty about continental or global scales is not attributed to this source. (LLM, conf=0.90)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
