Journal articles Open Access Structural complexity and large-sized trees explain shifting species richness and carbon relationship across vegetation types Sylvanus Mensah · V.K. Salako · Thomas Seifert 1. It is prominently claimed that enhancing forest diversity would play a dual role of nature conservation and climate regulation. While the idea is intuitively appealing, studies show that species richness effects on above-ground carbon (… RUF-38600 2020 CC BY 4.0 31 Aug 2020
Journal articles Open Access Functional trait diversity is a stronger predictor of multifunctionality than dominance: Evidence from an Afromontane forest in South Africa A.E. Assogbadjo · R. Glèlè Kakaï · Sylvanus Mensah · V.K. Salako +2 more Studies on how biodiversity influences ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) help elucidate ecological mechanisms (e.g. niche complementarity and selection) underlying provision of multiple ecosystem services.
