Tree diversity reduced soil erosion by affecting tree canopy and biological soil crust development in a subtropical forest experiment
Abstract
Biodiversity plays a crucial role in forest ecosystem sustainability. However, it is unclear how tree diversity and especially the relationship between diversity and ecosystem functioning affect soil erosion. Based on a forest biodiversity and ecosystem functioning experiment established in subtropical China (BEF China), we measured soil erosion at four tree species richness levels (monocultures, 8 tree species, 16 tree species and 24 species...
