Structural diversity and tree density drives variation in the biodiversity–ecosystem function relationship of woodlands and savannas

New Phytologist, Volume 232, Issue 2, Page 579-594, October 2021., 2021
Summary Positive biodiversity–ecosystem function relationships (BEFRs) have been widely documented, but it is unclear if BEFRs should be expected in disturbance‐driven systems. Disturbance may limit competition and niche differentiation, which are frequently posited to underlie BEFRs.
