Metabolic ecology and habitat stability explain the disproportionately high species richness in standing waters

Laura Anna Maehn, Christian Hof, Seth Bybee, Roland Brandl, Stefan Pinkert

The paper tests the Metabolic Theory of Ecology (MTE) in freshwater systems by comparing lentic and lotic species, finding that lentic species show less deviation from MTE predictions and are more prevalent in climatically unstable regions.
