Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in grassland cover and in its spatial heterogeneity indicate degradation on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) as a proxy for grassland cover and its spatial heterogeneity as indicators to map the new grassland development and degradation levels in 2016.
Journal ArticleDOI
Responses of rare calcareous grassland plants to elevated CO2: a field experiment with Gentianella germanica and Gentiana cruciata.
TL;DR: Investigation of differences in the behaviour of the rare calcareous grassland species Gentiana cruciata and Gentianella germanica under ambient and elevated CO2 indicated large genetic variation in the response to elevated C02, which represents evolutionary potential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genomics meets remote sensing in global change studies: monitoring and predicting phenology, evolution and biodiversity
Eri Yamasaki,Florian Altermatt,Florian Altermatt,Jeannine Cavender-Bares,Meredith C. Schuman,Debra Zuppinger-Dingley,Irene Garonna,Fabian D. Schneider,Carla Guillén-Escribà,Sofia J. van Moorsel,Terhi Hahl,Bernhard Schmid,Gabriela Schaepman-Strub,Michael E. Schaepman,Kentaro Shimizu,Kentaro Shimizu +15 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that three genomic-scale methods would enhance global change studies, including genome-wide RNA sequencing, which enables monitoring of diverse functional traits and phenology, and DNA metabarcoding, which provides efficient and unbiased ecosystem monitoring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Co‐occurrence history increases ecosystem stability and resilience in experimental plant communities
Sofia J. van Moorsel,Sofia J. van Moorsel,Terhi Hahl,Owen L. Petchey,Anne Ebeling,Nico Eisenhauer,Bernhard Schmid,Cameron Wagg,Cameron Wagg +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that prolonged exposure of plant populations to a particular community context and abiotic site conditions can increase ecosystem temporal stability and resilience due to short-term evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
What happens to the sown species if a biodiversity experiment is not weeded
Christiane Roscher,Alexander J. F. Fergus,Jana S. Petermann,Nina Buchmann,Bernhard Schmid,Ernst Detlef Schulze +5 more
TL;DR: Positive impacts of colonizing species on residents which accelerated through time decreased with an increasing number of sown species, suggesting that colonization can destabilize the species composition of residents in terms of abundance while leaving them unchanged in Terms of functional characteristics.
