It is a challenge to scale‐up from simplified proxies to ecosystem functioning since the
inherent complexity of natural ecosystems hinders such an approach. One way to address …

Forest degradation induced by intensive forest management and temperature increase by
climate change are resulting in biodiversity decline in boreal forests. Intensive forest …

Background A gamut of abiotic and biotic factors is related to the amount of above-ground
biomass (AGB) produced in ecosystems. Some factors have direct and others indirect …

The effect of biodiversity on ecosystem productivity has been a controversial issue in
ecological research. The species richness–productivity relationship is highly variable in …

Plants require a number of essential elements in different proportions for ensuring their
growth and development. The elemental concentrations in leaves reflect the functions and …

Tree‐growth stability is crucial in upholding forest ecosystem services. Despite extensive
research on the correlation between tree growth and climate, the influence of forest …

Changes in species composition and diversity-productivity relationships during vegetation
succession are of great significance for the restoration of degraded grasslands. However …

Forests are recognized for sustaining good water chemistry within landscapes. This study
focuses on the water chemistry parameters and their hydrological predictability and …

While the use of large tropical trees to predict aboveground biomass (AGB) in forests has
previously been studied, the applicability of this approach in arid regions remains …

Himalayan forests are crucial global carbon reservoirs that contribute significantly to carbon
mitigation efforts. Although situated within a single climatic zone, Himalayan forests include …
