The relationship between biomass and species richness in temperate vegetation has been described as a hump-back response model. The hump-back model pr...

In many European agricultural landscapes, species richness is declining considerably. Studies performed at a very large spatial scale are helpful in u...

Species richness is the most widely used biodiversity metric, but cannot be observed directly as, typically, some species are overlooked. Imperfect de...

For most ecological assemblages, compiling complete inventories of species is difficult, if not impossible. Various methods have been developed to est...

There is general concern that local loss of plant diversity will adversely impact net primary productivity and other ecosystem properties. However, me...

Species richness is often used as a tool for prioritizing conservation action. One method for predicting richness and other summaries of community str...

The goal of conservation and restoration activities is to maintain biological diversity and the ecosystem services that this diversity provides. These...

Agricultural intensification poses a serious threat to biodiversity as a consequence of increased land-use intensity, decreased landscape heterogeneit...

Plant biodiversity, which is fundamental for the delivery of ecosystem services, is in decline. Yet, knowledge about how plant biodiversity is perceiv...

Agri-environmental schemes (AES) are commonly adopted in Europe to reduce the loss of farmland biodiversity. These schemes have, however, been critici...
