ALT Diversity–stability relationships for aggregate and compositional variability at the metacommunity scale, in relation to the temporal average of regional gamma-diversity (a-b), the temporal average of spatial beta-diversity (c-d), and the temporal average of mean alpha-diversity (e-f)
ALT A conceptual framework for considering how lakeshore residential development (LRD) affects littoral habitat and fish communities. We hypothesize that LRD affects littoral habitat, in turn affecting fish communities (B). LRD may have effects on fish communities that are independent of its effects on littoral habitat (C). Finally, lake attributes that are unrelated to LRD may also affect fish communities (D)
ALT Schematic diagram depicting the predictions of the effect of increasing temporal and spatial scales on Taylor’s Power Law – the relationship between log-transformed trait variance and mean. A) Temporal heterogeneity increases with scale. B) Spatial heterogeneity increases with scale (colors/patterns indicate different habitat types). C) Prediction: steeper slopes as spatial and temporal scales increase
ALT Number of observations and time series (at least two observations per detrital cohort) for the central variables in the data set. The counts are differentiated by system (where detritus was incubated; top row) and the type of detritus
