1. Urbanisation is one of the main land‐use changes behind global insect collapse. Despite
that previous studies have described the negative effects of urbanisation on insect …

Understanding the mechanisms of ecosystem services trade-offs and synergies is critical for
forest management. Plant functional traits provide an approach to identify the relationships …

Microorganisms drive soil carbon mineralization and changes in their activity with increased
temperature could feedback to climate change. Variation in microbial biodiversity and the …

Elton's biotic resistance hypothesis, which posits that diverse communities should be more
resistant to biological invasions, has received considerable experimental support. However …

Rapidly increasing atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition has substantially altered resource
availability and the stoichiometry of microbial biomass in terrestrial ecosystems. However …

Context Biodiversity loss is predicted to have significant impacts on ecosystem services
based on previous ecological work at small spatial and temporal scales. However, scaling …

Biodiversity across multiple trophic levels is required to maintain multiple ecosystem
functions. Yet it remains unclear how multitrophic diversity and species interactions regulate …

Increasing aridity over the last six decades has resulted in severe degradation of ecosystem
functioning and structure in the dry-hot valley savanna. It remains largely uncertain whether …

The natural abundance of stable nitrogen isotopes (δ15N) provides insights into the N
dynamics of terrestrial ecosystems, the determination of which is considered an effective …

Various biodiversity attributes contribute to ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) in different
ways in terrestrial ecosystems. The relative influence of biodiversity and abiotic factors in …
