Precipitation preferences alter the relative importance of herbaceous plant diversity for multifunctionality in the drylands of China

BackgroundMultiple components of biodiversity are excellent predictors of precipitation-induced changes in ecosystem function. However, the importance of differing scales (alpha versus beta) is usually overlooked in biodiversity–ecosystem multifunctionality studies. Consequently, little is known abo...
