(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2016-01-29)
      Fraser et al. (Reports, 17 July 2015, p. 302) report a unimodal relationship between productivity and species richness at regional and global scales, which they contrast with the results of Adler et al. (Reports, 23 September ...
    • Extreme drought impacts have been underestimated in grasslands and shrublands globally 

      Smith, Melinda D.; Wilkins, Kate D.; Holdrege, Martin C.; Wilfahrt, Peter A.; Collins, Scott L.; Knapp, Alan K.; Sala, Osvaldo E.; Dukes, Jeffrey S.; Phillips, Richard P.; Yahdjian, Laura; Peri, Pablo Luis; Zuo, Xiaoan (National Academy of Sciences (Estados Unidos), 2024-01-08)
      Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of short-term (~1 y) drought events—the most common duration of drought—globally. Yet the impact of this intensification of drought on ecosystem functioning remains ...
    • General destabilizing effects of eutrophication on grassland productivity at multiple spatial scales 

      Hautier, Yann; Zhang, Pengfei; Loreau, Michel; Wilcox, Kevin R.; Seabloom, Eric William; Borer, Elizabeth T.; Byrnes, Jarrett E.K.; Koerner, Sally E.; Komatsu, Kimberly J.; Lefcheck, Jonathan S.; Hector, Andy; Adler, Peter B.; Alberti, Juan; Arnillas, Carlos Alberto; Bakker, Jonathan D.; Brudvig, Lars A.; Bugalho, Miguel N.; Cadotte, Marc.; Caldeira, Maria C.; Carroll, Oliver; Crawley, Mick; Collins, Scott L.; Daleo, Pedro; Dee, Laura E.; Eisenhauer, Nico; Eskelinen, Anu; Fay, Philip A.; Gilbert, Benjamin; Hansar, Amandine; Isbell, Forest; Knops, Johannes M.H.; MacDougall, Andrew S.; McCulley, Rebecca L.; Moore, Joslin L.; Morgan, John W.; Mori, Akira S.; Peri, Pablo Luis; Pos, Edwin; Power, Sally A.; Price, Jodi N.; Reich, Peter B.; Risch, Anita C.; Roscher, Christiane; Sankaran, Mahesh; Schütz, Martin; Smith, Melinda D.; Stevens, Carly J.; Tognetti, Pedro Maximiliano; Virtanen, Risto; Wardle, Glenda M.; Wilfahrt, Peter A.; Wang, Shaopeng (Springer Nature, 2020-10-23)
      Eutrophication is a widespread environmental change that usually reduces the stabilizing effect of plant diversity on productivity in local communities. Whether this effect is scale dependent remains to be elucidated. Here, ...
    • Microbial processing of plant remains is co‐limited by multiple nutrients in global grasslands 

      Ochoa-Hueso, Raúl; Borer, Elizabeth T.; Seabloom, Eric William; Hobbie, Sarah E.; Risch, Anita C.; Collins, Scott L.; Alberti, Juan; Bahamonde, Héctor Alejandro; Brown, Cynthia S.; Caldeira, Maria C.; Daleo, Pedro; Dickman, Chris R.; Ebeling, Anne; Eisenhauer, Nico; Esch, Ellen H.; Eskelinen, Anu; Fernández, Victoria; Güsewell, Sabine; Gutierrez-Larruga, Blanca; Hofmockel, Kirsten; Laungani, Ramesh; Lind, Eric M.; López, Andrea; McCulley, Rebecca L.; Moore, Joslin L.; Peri, Pablo Luis; Power, Sally A.; Price, Jodi N.; Prober, Suzanne M.; Roscher, Christiane; Sarneel, Judith M.; Schütz, Martin; Siebert, Julia; Standish, Rachel J.; Velasco Ayuso, Sergio; Virtanen, Risto; Wardle, Glenda M.; Wiehl, Georg; Yahdjian, Laura; Zamin, Tara (Wiley, 2020-06)
      Microbial processing of aggregate‐unprotected organic matter inputs is key for soil fertility, long‐term ecosystem carbon and nutrient sequestration and sustainable agriculture. We investigated the effects of adding multiple ...
    • The positive effect of plant diversity on soil carbon depends on climate 

      Spohn, Marie; Bagchi, Sumanta; Biederman, Lori A.; Borer, Elizabeth T.; Bråthen, Kari Anne; Bugalho, Miguel N.; Caldeira, Maria C.; Catford, Jane A.; Collins, Scott L.; Eisenhauer, Nico; Peri, Pablo Luis; Yahdjian, Laura (Springer Nature, 2023-10-19)
      Little is currently known about how climate modulates the relationship between plant diversity and soil organic carbon and the mechanisms involved. Yet, this knowledge is of crucial importance in times of climate change ...
