Abiotic factors and plant biomass, not plant diversity, strongly shape grassland arthropods under drought conditions.

open access: yesEcology, 2020
Arthropod abundance and diversity often track plant biomass and diversity at the local scale. However, under altered precipitation regimes and anthropogenic disturbances, plant-arthropod relationships are expected to be increasingly controlled by abiotic,
