We should not necessarily expect positive relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in observational field data
Our current, empirical understanding of the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem
function is based on two information sources. First, controlled experiments which show …

Increased microbial growth, biomass, and turnover drive soil organic carbon accumulation at higher plant diversity
Species‐rich plant communities have been shown to be more productive and to exhibit
increased long‐term soil organic carbon (SOC) storage. Soil microorganisms are central to …
