AbstractNutrient enrichment typically causes local plant diversity declines. A common but untested expectation is that nutrient enrichment also reduces variation in nutrient conditions among localities and selects for a smaller pool of species, causing greater diversity declines at larger than local scales and thus biotic homogenization.

AbstractThe positive effects of large herbivores on plant diversity in grasslands have so far been mainly attributed to increased light availability or suppressed dominance, and thus to the consequences of aboveground biomass consumption (trophic effects). However, these insights are mainly derived from short-term experiments.

AbstractNutrient enrichment impacts grassland plant diversity such as species richness, functional trait composition and diversity, but whether and how these changes affect ecosystem stability in the face of increasing climate extremes remains largely unknown. We quantify the direct and diversity-mediated effects of nutrient addition (by nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium) on the stability of aboveground biomass production in 10 long-term grassland experimental sites.
