      The latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) is one of the most recognized global patterns of species richness exhibited across a wide range of taxa. Numerous hypotheses have been proposed in the past two centuries to explain ...
    • Evenness mediates the global relationship between forest productivity and richness 

      Hordijk, Iris; Maynard, Daniel S.; Hart, Simon P.; Lidong, Mo; Steege, Hans ter; Liang, Jingjing; de Miguel, Sergio; Nabuurs, Gert-Jan; Reich, Peter B.; Abegg, Meinrad; Peri, Pablo Luis; Crowther, Thomas W. (British Ecological Society, 2023-06-07)
      1. Biodiversity is an important component of natural ecosystems, with higher species richness often correlating with an increase in ecosystem productivity. Yet, this relationship varies substantially across environments, ...
    • 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, ...
    • Integrated global assessment of the natural forest carbon potential 

      Mo, Lidong; Zohner, Constantin M.; Reich, Peter B.; Liang, Jingjing; de-Miguel, Sergio; Nabuurs, Gert-Jan; Renner, Susanne S.; van den Hoogen, Johan; Araza, Arnan; Herold, Martin; Peri, Pablo Luis; Crowther, Thomas W. (Springer Nature, 2023-12-07)
      Forests are a substantial terrestrial carbon sink, but anthropogenic changes in land use and climate have considerably reduced the scale of this system1. Remote-sensing estimates to quantify carbon losses from global ...
    • Invasions: the trail behind, the path ahead, and a test of a disturbing idea 

      Moles, Angela; Flores Moreno, Habacuc; Bonser, Stephen P.; Warton, David I.; Helm, Aveliina; Warman, Laura; Eldridge, David J.; Jurado, Enrique; Hemmings, Frank A.; Reich, Peter B.; Cavender Bares, Jeannine; Seabloom, Eric William; Mayfield, Margaret M.; Sheil, Douglas; Djietror, Jonathan C.; Peri, Pablo Luis; Enrico, Lucas; Cabido, Marcelo Ruben; Setterfield, Samantha; Lehman, Caroline; Thomson, Fiona (Wiley, 2012-01)
      We provide a brief overview of progress in our understanding of introduced plant species. Three main conclusions emerge from our review: (i) Many lines of research, including the search for traits that make species good ...
    • Positive biodiversity-productivity relationship predominant in global forests 

      Liang, Jingjing; Crowther, Thomas W.; Picard, Nicolas; Wiser, Susan; Zhou, Mo; Alberti, Giorgio; Schulze, Ernst-Detlef; McGuire, A. David; Bozzato, Fabio; Pretzsch, Hans; Peri, Pablo Luis; Reich, Peter B. (American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2016-10-14)
      The biodiversity-productivity relationship (BPR) is foundational to our understanding of the global extinction crisis and its impacts on ecosystem functioning. Understanding BPR is critical for the accurate valuation and ...
    • Recent deforestation drove the spike in Amazonian fires 

      Cardil, Adrián; de Miguel, Sergio; Silva, Carlos A.; Reich, Peter B.; Calkin, David; Brancalion, Pedro H. S.; Vibrans, Alexander C.; Gamarra, Javier G. P.; Zhou, M.; Pijanowski, Bryan C.; Hui, Cang; Crowther, Thomas W.; Hérault, Bruno; Piotto, Daniel; Salas-Eljatib, Christian; North Broadbent, Eben; Almeyda Zambrano, Angelica M.; Picard, Nicolas; Aragão, Luiz E.O. C.; Bastin, Jean-Francois; Routh, Devin; van den Hoogen, Johan; Peri, Pablo Luis; Liang, Jingjing (IOP Publishing, 2020-12-11)
      Tropical forests are of global importance even though they only cover around 10% of the Earth's land surface. They store large amounts of carbon and host between one-half and two-thirds of the world's species (Lewis 2006). ...
