Title |
Tritrophic interactions in tropical versus temperate communities |
Date |
2002 |
Description |
The latitudinal gradient in diversity is one of the oldest (e.g., Wallace, 1878) and most obvious trends in ecology, and a wealth of literature is devoted to understanding both the causes and consequences of this gradient (Dobzhansky, 1950; also reviewed by Rohde, 1992). Given the enormous latitudinal differences in both diversity and productivity between temperate and tropical habitats, it is likely that relationships among trophic levels may also be fundamentally different. |
