Biodiversity management in the face of climate change: A review of 22 years of recommendations
Abstract Climate change creates new challenges for biodiversity conservation. Species ranges and ecological dynamics are already responding to recent climate shifts, and current reserves will not… Expand

Viewing invasive species removal in a whole-ecosystem context
Eradications of invasive species often have striking positive effects on native biota. However, recent research has shown that species removal in isolation can also result in unexpected changes to… Expand

High plant diversity is needed to maintain ecosystem services
Biodiversity is rapidly declining worldwide, and there is consensus that this can decrease ecosystem functioning and services. It remains unclear, though, whether few or many of the species in an… Expand

Restoration through reassembly: plant traits and invasion resistance.
One of the greatest challenges for ecological restoration is to create or reassemble plant communities that are resistant to invasion by exotic species. We examine how concepts pertaining to the… Expand

Additive effects of simulated climate changes, elevated CO2, and nitrogen deposition on grassland diversity
Biodiversity responses to ongoing climate and atmospheric changes will affect both ecosystem processes and the delivery of ecosystem goods and services. Combined effects of co-occurring global… Expand
