Why does the longer age of tropical communities matter?

In comparison to temperate or polar populations, tropical communities are often older. In comparison to a tundra community, the growth season in the tropics lasts nearly five times as long. Thus, biological time moves five times more quickly in the tropics.

The increased metabolic rates, ecological dynamics, and coevolutionary processes brought on by the higher temperatures in the tropics produce and sustain more biodiversity.

Invasive non-native species and habitat degradation were the biggest threats to island biodiversity. Islands contain larger populations of extinct and severely endangered species than continents, as well as human languages.
