Species traits patch turnover and successional dynamics: when does intermediate disturbance favour metapopulation occupancy?

摘要

Examples of the simulation outputs to early, mid and late successional species (see Additional file : Figs. A3 to A5 for full results). The graphs depict metapopulation occupancy after 100 time-steps in each scenario of habitat availability (5%, 10% and 20%) and landscape dynamics (0%, 5%, 10%, 20%) considered in the study. Blue—5% of habitat cover; Red—10% of habitat cover; Green—20% of habitat cover (with 95% confidence intervals). For the full range of outputs refer to Additional file : Figs. A3 to A5
