Multidimensional responses of ecological stability to eutrophication in grasslands

Q. Chen, S.-P. Wang, E. T. Borer, J. D. Bakker, E. W. Seabloom, W. S. Harpole, N. Eisenhauer, Y. Lekberg, Y. M. Buckley, J. A. Catford, C. Roscher, I. Donohue, S. A. Power, P. Daleo, A. Ebeling, , Y. Hautier

This study quantifies how nutrient addition affects ecological stability facets in grasslands, finding reduced resistance in species richness and community composition but not biomass.

Intra-annual temperature variability and nutrient enrichment drive seasonal beta-diversity in global grasslands

M. Garbowski, E. Boughton, A. Ebling, P. Fay, Y. Hautier, H. Holz, A. Jentsch, S. D. Jurburg, E. Ladouceur, J. Martina, T. Ohlert, X. Raynaud, C. Roscher, G. Sonnier, P. M. Tognetti, , W. S. Harpole

The paper investigates how intra-annual temperature variability and nutrient enrichment affect seasonal beta-diversity in global grasslands, finding temperature variability increases beta-diversity while nutrient enrichment alters functional group dynamics.

The recovery of plant community composition following passive restoration across spatial scales

E. Ladouceur, F. Isbell, A. T. Clark, W. S. Harpole, P. B. Reich, G. D. Tilman, J. M. Chase

This study examines biodiversity recovery in abandoned temperate grasslands over 27 years, finding incomplete recovery of species richness and composition compared to undisturbed sites across multiple spatial scales.
