The compositional similarity of urban forests among the world's cities is scale dependent

Original language description

We examined species composition of urban forests from local to global scales using occurrence and abundance information to determine how compositional similarity is defined across spatial scales. We predicted that urban forests have become more homogeneous world-wide, which should result in minimal scale dependence that is more pronounced for non-native species, especially when considering abundance information. We estimated compositional dissimilarities of urban forests, including both spontaneous andcultivated trees, from local to global spatial scales using six dissimilarity metrics. We used redundancy analysis to determine how climate, geographic distance and anthropogenic factors are related to compositional dissimilarity among cities. These analyses were implemented for all species combined and for native and non-native species separately. The 38 cities contained a median of 77 tree species, with a greater percentage of these classified as native (median = 58%). The similarity o
