Experimental analyses of diversity partitioning in southern hemisphere algal communities.
Article in Oecologia, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Understanding how biodiversity and its components of alpha, beta, and gamma vary over spatial and temporal scales and across communities is crucial to mitigating stressors of ecosystems. Marine communities present several problems in partitioning diversity over fine spatial scales, such as tidal zones, and temporal scales relating to seasonal occurrences of species and recovery responses to impacts. This study uses an experimental approach to test disturbance effects on beta diversity in algal communities in southern New Zealand. Dominant canopies in mid-shore Hormosira banksii and low-shore Durvillaea poha communities were removed and diversity metrics assessed, including additive partitioning, permutational dispersion, and nestedness and turnover analyses. Over 2 years, 258 species were found. Species richness was greater where canopies remained intact in Hormosira communities compared to removal plots, but, in Durvillaea communities, controls and removals had similar richness. In both communities, β-diversity was 1.5-3.9 times greater than α-diversity, with the temporal component β
