Abstract

Global Ecosystem Analysis The relationship between species richness and the functional properties of their ecosystems has often been studied at small scales in experimental plots. Maestre et al. (p. 214 ; see the Perspective by Midgley ) performed field measurements at 224 dryland sites from six con...
