Tree diversity drives forest stand resistance to natural disturbances
Purpose of review Forests are frequently exposed to natural disturbances, which are likely to
increase with global change, and may jeopardize the delivery of ecosystem services. Mixed …

Drought resistance enhanced by tree species diversity in global forests
Restoring species diversity is proposed as a strategy to improve ecosystem resistance to
extreme droughts, but the impact of species diversity on resistance has not been evaluated …

A review of processes behind diversity—productivity relationships in forests
Through complementarity interactions, mixed-species forests can be more productive than
monocultures, and this effect can increase with tree-species richness. However, this is not …
