Invariant scaling of the Species Abundance Distribution in observed and simulated marine plankton communities
Marine plankton are functionally diverse and span over five orders of magnitude in diameter, with important consequences for marine biogeochemical cycles. Marine ecosystem simulations are beginning to resolve this diversity; however, major uncertainties persist regarding the structure and function of planktonic ecosystems. Here we diagnosed plankton Species Abundance Distributions (SADs) in…
