Measuring ecosystem multifunctionality across scales
Environmental Research Letters, 2019 Multifunctionality refers to the capacity of an area to supply multiple ecosystem functions or services. While many conceptual and methodological advances have focused on defining and quantifying multifunctionality, the challenge of dealing with cross ...

Food web structure and ecosystem multifunctionality in a subsidized coastal ecosystem. [PDF]
Sci RepAbstract The structure and functioning of all ecosystems face growing threats, ranging from local development to global climate change. Ecosystems with little to no in situ primary production may be disproportionately dependent on resources from other ecosystems.
