Metacommunity Ecology, Volume 59 / / Jonathan M. Chase, Mathew A. Leibold.
Metacommunity ecology links smaller-scale processes that have been the provenance of population and community ecology-such as birth-death processes, species interactions, selection, and stochasticity-with larger-scale issues such as dispersal and habitat heterogeneity. Until now, the field has focus...
