[The continuity and discontinuity of the living cover: problem of the scale]
Abstract:
The reply to B.M. Mirkin's critical remarks (2005) concerning my paper "Continuity and discontinuity of the geomerida: the bionomic and biotic aspects" (Kafanov, 2005a) is given. The relationship between continuity and discontinuity of the living cover depends on the scale of study. The continuum mainly belongs to regularities of topological order. At regional, subglobal and global scale, the continuum of biochores is rather rare. The objective evidences of relative discontinuity of the living cover are determined by significant alterations of taxonomic richness at regional, subglobal and global scale.
