The composition of communities shaped by niche-based assembly is expected to be more predictable than the composition of randomly assembled communities in otherwise similar environments (Chase 2007). The purpose of this study was to test Chase's findings by looking at lichen communities in the Boundary Waters Area Wilderness in northern MN.
