Relationships between resource availability and elevation vary between metrics creating gradients of nutritional complexity
Plant and animal community composition changes at higher elevations on mountains. Plant and animal species richness generally declines with elevation, but the shape of the relationship differs between taxa. There are several proposed mechanisms, including the productivity hypotheses; that declines in available plant biomass confers fewer resources to consumers, thus...Lee, Mark A. ; Burger, Grace ; Green, Emma R. ; Kooij, Pepijn W.
