it tries to predict how species diversity will change with changing levels of distrubance. It is found that in areas with little distrubance a dominant species will "take-over", and it areas with high distrubance only species highly adaptive to the distrubance will survive. Both the previous scenieros will ensure low levels of biodiversity, while a perpetual disturbance (the intermediate disturbance theory basis) allows more diversity to flourish in the area.
