The road to integrate climate change projections with regional land‐use–biodive...
Cabral, Juliano Sarmento; Mendoza‐Ponce, Alma; P. Silva, André; Oberpriller, Johannes; Mimet, Anne; Kieslinger, Julia; Berger, ThomasCurrent approaches to project spatial biodiversity responses to climate change mainly focus on the direct effects of climate on species while regarding land use and land cover as constant or prescribed by global land-use scenarios. However, local land-use decisions are often affected by climate change and biodiversity on top of socioeconomic and policy drivers. To realistically understand and predict climate im...
A global synthesis reveals biodiversity-mediated benefits for crop production
Dainese, Matteo; Martin, Emily A.; Aizen, Marcelo A.; Albrecht, Matthias; Bartomeus, Ignasi; Bommarco, Riccardo; Carvalheiro, Luísa GiganteHuman land use threatens global biodiversity and compromises multiple ecosystem functions critical to food production. Whether crop yield-related ecosystem services can be maintained by a few dominant species or rely on high richness remains unclear. Using a global database from 89 studies (with 1475 locations), we partition the relative importance of species richness, abundance, and dominance for pollination; ...
