DOI: 10.1002/ecy.2653
Abstract: Forest fragments in highly disturbed landscapes provide important ecosystem services ranging from acting as biodiversity reservoir to providing timber or regulating hydrology. Managing the tree species richness and composition of these fragments to optimize their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3745
Abstract: Biodiversity across multiple trophic levels is required to maintain multiple ecosystem functions. Yet, it remains unclear how multitrophic diversity and species interactions regulate ecosystem multifunctionality. Here, combining data from nine different trophic groups (including trees,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.4104
Abstract: Biodiversity changes, such as decline in species richness and biotic homogenization, can have grave consequences for ecosystem functionality. Careful investigation of biodiversity-ecosystem multifunctionality linkages with due consideration of conceptual and technical challenges is required to… read more here.

Synergistic Effects of Rooted Aquatic Vegetation and Drift Wrack on Ecosystem Multifunctionality
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Ecosystems"
DOI: 10.1007/s10021-021-00609-9
Abstract: Ecosystem multifunctionality is an increasingly popular concept used to approximate multifaceted ecosystem functioning, which in turn may help advance ecosystem-based management. However, while experimental studies have shown a positive effect of diversity on multifunctionality, observational… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-018-1822-0
Abstract: Since at least the 1980s, ecologists have argued that restoring ecosystem functioning in highly degraded areas is the “acid test” for ecological understanding (Bradshaw 1987). Ecosystem engineers and foundational species are often considered pivotal in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2017.12.030
Abstract: Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) have been tentatively applied for wastewater treatment processes, but the complex composition of wastewater could lead to difficulties in establishing functional biofilm or result in performance instability. Few studies have investigated the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2020.106095
Abstract: Abstract Grassland ecosystems are experiencing increasing perturbations from climate change and anthropogenic activities, which often cause vegetation fragmentation and grassland degradation. Although individual ecosystem functions have been extensively investigated in the vegetation fragmentation and grassland… read more here.
