Evaluation of the effects of biological operations on functional diversity and soil of carbon stock (Case study: Arange watershed, Alborz province)
Communities or ecosystems with higher biodiversity also have higher levels of ecosystem function and services, so the relationship between functional diversity and sustainability of plant communities is essential to predict ecosystem functioning. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between carbon stocks and different species diversity and functional indices as well...
متن کاملBiodiversity and Ecosystem Multi-Functionality: Observed Relationships in Smallholder Fallows in Western Kenya
Recent studies indicate that species richness can enhance the ability of plant assemblages to support multiple ecosystem functions. To understand how and when ecosystem services depend on biodiversity, it is valuable to expand beyond experimental grasslands. We examined whether plant diversity improves the capacity of agroecosystems to sustain multiple ecosystem services-production of wood and ...
متن کاملAssessment the effect of Slope aspect and position on some soil microbial indices in rangeland and forest
Extended abstract Introduction Topography is one of the effective factors in soil formation and development. Topographical features such as slope aspect and position, by affecting soil temperature, evaporation capacity, soil moisture content, soil organic matter, precipitation, movement, and accumulation of soil solution can impress soil microbial properties. For investigating the ...
متن کاملThe abundance, richness and functional role of soil meso- and macrofauna in temperate grassland—A case study
This paper reviews the abundance and species richness, and factors that cause these parameters to vary, of mesofauna and macrofauna in an upland grassland soil studied intensively under the NERC Soil Biodiversity Programme. The concept that competitive exclusion does not act within soil communities is reviewed in light of these findings, which are placed in the context of the wider literature r...
متن کاملDriving forces of soil bacterial community structure, diversity, and function in temperate grasslands and forests
Soil bacteria provide a large range of ecosystem services such as nutrient cycling. Despite their important role in soil systems, compositional and functional responses of bacterial communities to different land use and management regimes are not fully understood. Here, we assessed soil bacterial communities in 150 forest and 150 grassland soils derived from three German regions by pyrotag sequ...
