Fig. 3

Two-dimensional a TNMDS and b PNMDS ordinations of ten acid seep springs (names in black text shown at the position of the centroid among 10 plots per spring) based on species abundance data (species in red text; see Table S1 for codes). Only species discussed in the “Discussion” section are labeled in the TNMDS, but all recorded species were used to build both ordinations. Significant vectors from vector analysis (blue text; see Tables 1 and 2) are plotted including Den (overhead canopy cover), June, July, and August soil moisture (JunSM, JulSM, and AugSM, respectively), net relatedness index (NRI), and nearest taxon index (NTI)
