Disturbance and climate affect species richness and aboveground biomass relationship in a forest–savanna transition ecosystem
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/151627
Abstract
The relationship between species richness and aboveground biomass (richness–biomass relationship) is a major facet of ecosystem functions and has stimulated debates over the past decades. However, we still lack basic knowledge on whether this relationship has consistent patterns across natural and human-impacted vegetation cover types. More importantly, the effects…
