Effects of “Taxonomic Richness”, “Functional Richness” and available “Substratum”.

Diversity and substratum effects on the variation in the speed of convergence between transplanted and resident fouling communities. Results from linear mixed-effects analysis. The different levels of spatial replication, i.e. “Biogeographic Region” (n = 8), and “Experimental Site” (n = 16) nested in “Biogeographic Region”, were fitted as random effects.
