TL;DR: Biodiversity loss explained indirect effects in a region of intermediate productivity and was most damaging when land‐use objectives favoured supporting and cultural services, and functional composition shifts, towards fast‐growing plant species, strongly increased provisioning services in more inherently unproductive grasslands.

TL;DR: Soil bacterial community composition and diversity of the six analyzed management types showed significant differences between the land use types grassland and forest, and bacterial community structure was largely driven by tree species and soil pH.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that primary producers, herbivorous insects and microbial decomposers seem to be particularly important drivers of ecosystem functioning, as shown by the strong and frequent positive associations of their richness or abundance with multiple ecosystem services.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated leaching of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), and dissolved methane (CH4), at forests, grasslands, and croplands across Europe.

TL;DR: It appeared that lower land use intensity results in higher bacterial diversity, as the estimated bacterial diversity was higher in the A horizons than in the corresponding B horizons, and was positively correlated with the organic carbon content, the total nitrogen content, and the C-to-N ratio.
