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 …

Humanity places a heavy burden on agricultural landscapes, demanding plentiful food,
multiple ecosystem functions, and biodiversity conservation. We quantified areas growing …

Abstract The South China Karst (SCK), the world's largest contiguous karst region, has
undergone severe ecological degradation associated with the interaction of fragile natural …

It is essential to understand how the loss of biodiversity impacts both ecosystem function
(EF) and multifunctionality (EMF). Previous studies have mostly focused on predicting how …

Plant-related microbial communities are essential to plant growth and development, and
empirical evidence suggests that inoculation with a synthetic microbial consortium can …

Tree species diversity is assumed to be an important component in managing forest
ecosystems because of effects on multiple functions or ecosystem multifunctionality …

Aim We may be able to buffer biodiversity against the effects of ongoing climate change by
prioritizing the protection of habitat with diverse physical features (high geodiversity) …

Understanding the multi-scale and multi-factor driving mechanisms of ecosystem services
(ES) change is crucial for combating the severe degradation of the ecosystem. We reviewed …

Forest stand transformation is a crucial strategy for enhancing the productivity and stability of
planted forest ecosystems and maximizing their ecosystem functions. However …

The primary objective of this study was to determine the relative roles of local environmental
(Local), geo‐climatic (Geo), and spatial (Spatial) factors to taxonomic, functional, and …
