The number of coexisting species as a function of the number of limiting factors in spatially heterogeneous systems. The simulated systems contain a pool of 100 species, competing in numerous patches, each of which is limited by a combination of up to k factors of five total factors. For example, the far left box shows the number of coexisting species in the system when each patch is limited by only one of the five factors (SI Text).
