Succession: Similarities of species turnover rates

Shugart HH and Hett JM. 1973. Succession: Similarities of species turnover rates. Science. 180(4093):1379-1381

The rate coefficients for species turnover (the proportion of species lost per unit time) for successional communities decreases the communities approach some equilibrium state. This observation makes it possible to determine the parameters of a two-parameter model which quantifies the time variation of successional changes in the second derivative
