How lithology impacts global topography, vegetation, and animal biodiversity: a global‐scale analysis of mountainous regions
Richard F. Ott A myriad of rock types are exposed at Earth's surface, all of which have different chemical and physical properties. These differences are important because rock properties affect processes on Earth's surface that shape topography and because rocks are the base material from which most soils form. Here, I investigate how the steepness of a landscape varies based on differences in rock type and show that rock type variations can partly explain Earth's topography. I also test whether the differences in rock type that lead to variations in soil properties and water availability influence plant cover and animal richness globally. I find that limestone areas have less vegetation and lower numbers of amphibian, bird, and mammalian species. This is likely related to low water availability and nutrient content in limestone areas.
