Spatial Distribution of Zooplankton Diversity across Temporary Pools in a Semiarid Intermittent River

Figure 4

Observed and expected diversity, partitioned into one alpha and three beta components, expressed as percent of total species richness. Numbers indicate the proportion of randomized samples containing more species than the observed sample for each partition. α1: subsample species richness, β1: beta diversity among sub-samples; β2: beta diversity among pools or habitats within pool, and β3: beta diversity among river reaches.
