Knowledge graph centered on species-area relationship with 71 nodes and 102 connections. Top connected: Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory, Gothic, Scarlet Gilia, Slender-tube Skyrocket, Pekania pennanti.

Definition

The relationship between habitat area and number of species it contains, typically expressed as S(A) = cA^z where S is species number, A is area, c is a taxon-specific constant, and z is the scaling exponent
