Sections/sources added and pieces reworded
[edit]Hi all! Just as a heads up, I plan on making some changes to the article soon. See below for the summary:
1. Adding a section about the impacts of climate change discussing how, under current models, certain environmental gradients will be impacted. 2. Adding a section about man-made environmental gradients and how certain human processes (e.g. polluting sites, nuclear disasters) can create gradients/drastically shift existing ones. 3. Expanding on the "Abiotic factors" section with a more specific example of abiotic gradients affecting biotic components within them. 4. General rewording - some of the wording feels slightly redundant or unapproachable, mostly in the introduction, so I will be making some syntactic edits to simplify.
Happy editing! Adrik62 (talk) 05:17, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
External links modified
[edit]Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified one external link on Environmental gradient. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
- Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20150415130557/http://www.sefs.washington.edu/classes.esc.401/Gradients.htm to http://www.sefs.washington.edu/classes.esc.401/Gradients.htm
When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Light refining with suggested references
[edit]Hello all. I think that the current provided information on environmental gradients can be bolstered with more sources. Additionally, I plan to mention local adaption occurring over environmental gradients. All suggested/future edits are based in part by the references below:
1) Morphology change across environmental gradient.[1]
2) Effects of predators on prey across environmental gradient.[2]
3) Local adaption along environmental gradients.[3]
4) Urban environmental gradient.[4]
5) Productivity and species richness along an environmental gradient.[5]
6) Patterns of interaction change along an environmental gradient.[6]
7) Carbon fluxes and abiotic factors along an environmental gradient.[7]
