Opposing mechanisms drive diversity patterns of core and occasional bird species ESA Meeting 8.12.2011
North American geography causes mechanisms
that drive core and occasional diversity to oppose
each other.
It is important to distinguish between core and
occasional species when interpreting species
richness, since these two groups have different
roles in the community.

Opposing mechanisms drive diversity patterns of core and occasional bird species ESA Meeting 8.12.2011
Avian communities are comprised of core and
occasional species.
Core species richness is correlated with the local
environment.
Occasional species richness is correlated with
regional factors.
