Modelling the species-area relationship using extreme value theory by Luís Borda-de-Água, M. Manuela Neves, Luise Quoss, Stephen P. Hubbell, Filipe S. Dias, Henrique M. Pereira

“…Abstract The nested species-area relationship, obtained by counting species in increasingly larger areas in a nested fashion, exhibits robust and recurring qualitative and quantitative patterns. When plotted in double logarithmic scales it shows three phases: rapid species increase at small areas, slower growth at intermediate scales, and faster rise at large scales. …”
