Life‐History Strategies Drive Plant Species Richness Patterns in the Atlantic Forest Hotspot Open
Aim The underlying processes driving the origin and spatial variation of species richness stand as one of the most fundamental and enigmatic questions in ecology. Here, we assess the roles of water stress, energy availability, climatic sea…
