One of the fundamental goals in ecology is to explain the spatial and temporal patterns of biological diversity. This is important as it helps in determining associations of environmental variables with observed patterns of community similarity in order to understand mechanisms that may influence beta diversity. Moreover, it is also crucial in dete...
