What is Nestedness in Deep-Sea Polychaetes about?

This study examines how nestedness and species replacement contribute to biodiversity patterns in polychaete assemblages along depth gradients in the oligotrophic north-west Gulf of Mexico. The researchers find that nestedness, where smaller communities are subsets of larger communities, is the most significant component of biodiversity changes with depth and particulate organic carbon flux to the seafloor. Nestedness increases significantly with increasing depth as populations in deeper areas may rely on i
