Most existing studies that examined the biotic mechanisms of ecosystem stability have focused on aboveground biodiversity. Whether and how belowground biodiversity affects the stability of natural ecosystems is largely unknown. In the present study, we investigated the relationships between above- and belowground biodiversity and the temporal stability of grassland biomass production across a large gradient of soil and climatic conditions.

地表和地下生物多样性共同驱动青藏高原天然高寒草地生态系统稳定

大多数现有的研究生态系统稳定性的生物机制的研究都集中在地上生物多样性上。地下生物多样性是否以及如何影响自然生态系统的稳定性在很大程度上是未知的。在本研究中，我们研究了在大梯度土壤和气候条件下地上和地下生物多样性与草地生物量生产的时间稳定性之间的关系。
