Moving beyond assumptions to understand abundance distributions across the ranges of species

RD Sagarin, SD Gaines, B Gaylord - Trends in ecology & evolution, 2006 - cell.com
The assumption that species are most abundant in the center of their range and decline in
abundance toward the range edges has a long history in the ecological literature. This …
