Remote Sensing, 2022 Efforts to assess and understand changes in plant diversity and ecosystem functioning focus on the analysis of taxonomic diversity. However, the resilience of ecosystems depends not only on species richness but also on the functions (responses and ...

Predicting microbial species richness [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005 Microorganisms are spectacularly diverse phylogenetically, but available estimates of their species richness are vague and problematic. For example, for comparable environments, the estimated numbers of species range from a few dozen or hundreds to tens of thousands and even half a million.

Vascular plant species richness and bioindication predict multi‐taxon species richness [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2018 Abstract Plants regulate soils and microclimate, provide substrate for heterotrophic taxa, are easy to observe and identify and have a stable taxonomy, which strongly justifies their use as indicators in monitoring and conservation.

Urbanization and Human Population Favor Species Richness of Alien Birds
Diversity, 2020 Human activities like urbanization and agriculture affect spatial biodiversity patterns. The presence and activities of humans richly benefit alien species, but native species usually decline in human-impacted areas.

Determinants of species richness patterns in the Netherlands across multiple taxonomic groups [PDF]
, 2009 We examined the species richness patterns of five different species groups (mosses, reptiles and amphibians, grasshoppers and crickets, dragonflies, and hoverflies) in the Netherlands (41,500 km2) using sampling units of 5 × 5 km. We compared the spatial

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 1997 Introductions of freshwater fish into French rivers have been carried out with increasing frequency in the last decades. Thus, the potential impact of these introductions is of major concern for biologists and fishery managers. Knowledge of the degree of

Long-term species richness-abundance dynamics in relation to species departures and arrivals in wintering urban bird assemblages [PDF]
, 2019 Temporal dynamics of local assemblages depend on the species richness and the total abundance of individuals as well as local departure and arrival rates of species. We used urban bird survey data collected from the same 31 study plots and methods during
