The species-area relationship explained: why does the species area relationship exhibits three phases across spatial scales? Our paper solving this decades old mistery is out in Nature Communications. A thread👇1/#

Our theory predicts that for instance amphibians in Australia (AU) exhibit the three phases and the spatial scale at which the transitions occur. 11/#

This amazing work took several years to develop and was lead by Luis Borda-de-Água. His first insights into this issue were published as a book chapter in 2021 but he started working on it a couple years earlier. 13/13
