Understanding the value of plant diversity for ecosystem functioning through niche theory
Biodiversity experiments have generated robust empirical results supporting the hypothesis that ecosystems function better when they contain more species. Given that ecosystems provide services that are valued by humans this inevitably suggests that the loss of species from natural ecosystems cou...
