The more‐individuals hypothesis revisited: the role of community abundance in species richness regulation and the productivity–diversity relationship
Abstract
Species richness increases with energy availability, yet there is little consensus as to the exact processes driving this species–energy relationship. The most straightforward explanation is the more‐individuals hypothesis (MIH). It states that higher energy availability promotes a higher total number of individuals in a community, which consequently increases species richness by allowing for a greater number of species with viable populations....
