Mitigating the precipitous decline of terrestrial European insects: Requirements for a new strategy
JC Habel, MJ Samways, T Schmitt - Biodiversity and Conservation, 2019 - Springer
Severe decline in terrestrial insect species richness, abundance, flying biomass, and local
extinctions across Europe are cause for alarm. Here, we summarize this decline, and identify …

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 …
