Plant traits alone are poor predictors of ecosystem properties and long-term ecosystem functioning
Earth is home to over 350,000 vascular plant species that differ in their traits in innumerable
ways. A key challenge is to predict how natural or anthropogenically driven changes in the …

Biodiversity–stability relationships strengthen over time in a long-term grassland experiment
Numerous studies have demonstrated that biodiversity drives ecosystem functioning, yet
how biodiversity loss alters ecosystems functioning and stability in the long-term lacks …

We should not necessarily expect positive relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in observational field data
Our current, empirical understanding of the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem
function is based on two information sources. First, controlled experiments which show …
