[HTML][HTML] Environmental heterogeneity modulates the effect of plant diversity on the spatial variability of grassland biomass
Plant productivity varies due to environmental heterogeneity, and theory suggests that plant
diversity can reduce this variation. While there is strong evidence of diversity effects on …
