Fig. 1. Study regions are represented in blue circles situated in the middle of convex hulls (n=21). Crosses in the right side panel indicate which latitudinal bands are covered in our work. Fig. 2. Simpson dissimilarity (beta diversity due to species turnover) and nestedness dissimilarity (beta diversity due to nestedness‒resultant richness differences) that sum to Sørensen dissimilarity (i.e., total beta diversity) based on multiple site (A) and mean of pair‒wise (B) beta diversity measures for each study region. Multiple‒site beta diversity was based on 21 randomly‒selected lakes for each region (except for Brazil, Amazon which had a total n of 21).
