Biodiversity promotes ecosystem functioning despite environmental change
P Hong, B Schmid, F De Laender… - Ecology …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Three decades of research have demonstrated that biodiversity can promote the functioning
of ecosystems. Yet, it is unclear whether the positive effects of biodiversity on ecosystem …

Multiple anthropogenic pressures eliminate the effects of soil microbial diversity on ecosystem functions in experimental microcosms
Biodiversity is crucial for the provision of ecosystem functions. However, ecosystems are
now exposed to a rapidly growing number of anthropogenic pressures, and it remains …

At-risk marine biodiversity faces extensive, expanding, and intensifying human impacts
Human activities and climate change threaten marine biodiversity worldwide, though
sensitivity to these stressors varies considerably by species and taxonomic group. Mapping …

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 …

Understanding 'it depends' in ecology: a guide to hypothesising, visualising and interpreting statistical interactions
Ecologists routinely use statistical models to detect and explain interactions among
ecological drivers, with a goal to evaluate whether an effect of interest changes in sign or …

Low human interest for the most at-risk reef fishes worldwide
Human interest in biodiversity is essential for effective conservation action but remains
poorly quantified at large scales. Here, we investigated human interest for 2408 marine reef …
