Canopy Structure Regulates Autumn Phenology by Mediating Microclimate in Temperate ForestsA research from the Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, reveals that canopy structure significant influencing local-scale variations in autumn phenology by mediating microclimate conditions. Integrating the “canopy structure-microclimate-autumn phenology” pathway into existing autumn phenology models has enhanced prediction accuracy and improved forecasts of future changes in autumn phenology.Oct 14, 2024 -

Multitrophic Diversity Drives Ecosystem Multifunctionality, Amplified by Plant DiversityA study from the Institute of Botany at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IBCAS) has demonstrated that the association between multitrophic diversity and ecosystem multifunctionality is stronger than the relationship between the diversity of individual trophic groups and multifunctionality. This research underscores the critical role of diverse biological interactions across different trophic levels in maintaining ecosystem health. The study, published on August 29, 2024, in Nature Ecology & Evolution, reveals that plant diversity enhances ecosystem multifunctionality by promoting multitrophic diversity—diversity that spans multiple levels of the food web, from plants to herbivores, predators, and decomposers.Sep 06, 2024 -

Plant Diversity Enhances Ecosystem Multifunctionality via Multitrophic DiversityIn both forest and grassland ecosystems, the association between multitrophic diversity and multifunctionality was stronger than the relationship between the diversity of individual trophic groups and multifunctionality. The researchers show that plant diversity increases multifunctionality through elevated multitrophic diversity. The findings imply that, to promote ecosystem multifunctionality, conservation planning must consider the diversity of both plants and higher trophic levels.Sep 03, 2024 -
