Predicting Mammal Species Richness from Remotely Sensed Data at Different Spatial Scales
Boniface Oluoch Oindo (2008-12-05)Spatial variability in species richness has been postulated to depend upon environmental factors such as climatic variability, Net primary productivity and habitat heterogeneity. The Advanced Very High Resolution ... -
Spatial patterns of species diversity in Kenya
Boniface Oluoch Oindo (2001)It is evident to any biologist that small-bodied species within a given higher taxon (order, class, phylum, etc) tend to be represented by more individuals. Hence smallbodied species are generally more abundant than ... -
Understanding the relationship between environmental energy availability and bird species richness in Kenya using remote sensing and ancillary data
Boniface Oluoch Oindo (2008-12-05)The energy hypothesis predicts that, in regions of roughly equal area, energy flux per unit of area should be the prime determinant of species richness. In the case of plants, primary production represents realized energy ...
