Temporal coherence of aboveground net primary productivity in mesic grasslands

Ecography, 2008
Synchrony in ecological variables over wide geographic areas suggests that large‐scale environmental factors drive the structure and function of ecosystems and override more local‐scale environmental variation. Described also as coherence, this phenomenon has been documented broadly in the ecological literature and has recently received increasing ...

Diversity-Carbon Flux Relationships in a Northwest Forest

Diversity, 2011
While aboveground biomass and forest productivity can vary over abiotic gradients (e.g., temperature and moisture gradients), biotic factors such as biodiversity and tree species stand dominance can also strongly influence biomass accumulation.

Whole-soil warming shifts species composition without affecting diversity, biomass and productivity of the plant community in an alpine meadow

Fundamental Research, 2023
The structure and function of plant communities in alpine meadow ecosystems are potentially susceptible to climate warming. Here, we utilized a unique field manipulation experiment in an alpine meadow on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and investigated the ...

Belowground net primary productivity and biomass allocation in response to different restoration measures in a salt-alkali-degraded Songnen meadow

Ecological Indicators, 2021
The understanding of belowground productivity restoration and biomass allocation is especially important for the restoration of salt-alkali-degraded meadows.

Quantitative assessment of human appropriation of aboveground net primary production in China

Ecological Modelling, 2015
Abstract Profound and long-lasting effects on ecosystems have occurred during the past three decades’ development in China, which have threatened the country's sustainable development. The extent to which the biosphere's annual primary production has been altered by human intervention in China, however, is still unclear.

Seasonal variability in dry matter dynamics and net primary productivity of grassland ecosystem in Kumaun Himalaya

Geology, Ecology, and Landscapes
Grasslands in the Kumaun Himalayan region, formed largely due to degradation of forests by natural and anthropogenic disturbances, are ecologically significant but poorly studied in terms of dry matter dynamics and net primary productivity.

Temporal stability of grassland metacommunities is regulated more by community functional traits than species diversity

Ecosphere, 2020
Temporal stability in aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) is influenced by several attributes of plant communities. Identifying the primary regulators of stability and their roles across spatial scales is of both practical and theoretical ...

Estimation of aboveground net primary productivity in secondary tropical dry forests using the Carnegie–Ames–Stanford approach (CASA) model

Environmental Research Letters, 2016
Although tropical dry forests (TDFs) cover roughly 42% of all tropical ecosystems, extensive deforestation and habitat fragmentation pose important limitations for their conservation and restoration worldwide.
