Sentence examples for biodiversity effect from inspiring English sources

Also globally we could not confirm a biodiversity effect on productivity.

We calculated 745 biodiversity effect sizes from 26 studies involving manipulations of CWD (i.e., removed or added downed woody debris and/or snags).

Therefore, we summarized documented relationships between forest thinning treatments and forest biodiversity from 505 biodiversity effect sizes (incl. taxa and guild abundance and species richness measures) from 33 studies conducted across North America.

This will inform policy makers about realistic minimal offsetting ratios or offset area requirements accounting for the offsetting delay time, the value of counterfactual scenarios, the correlation between biodiversity effect size and reclamation, the risk of failure in restoration, and the gross quantity of restoration.

Traditionally, the mechanisms behind biodiversity effects observed in these experiments have been evaluated by relative yield, overyielding and Loreau and Hector's additive partitioning of net biodiversity effect, and more recently by linear-model-based methods such as Kirwan's diversity interaction model and Bell's random partition model.

It considered the correlation between biodiversity effect size and reclamation, and the risk of failure in restoration based on the offset ratios theory, to determine the optimal amount of offsetting by calculating the biodiversity ratios between damaged and compensated habitat areas.

However, considerable gaps exist in the assessment of biodiversity effects, and how non-target organisms would be impacted by GM crop cultivation.

Because the protection goal for those species differs compared with other NTOs, we strongly advise using assessment factors different from those used to assess overall biodiversity effects.

This assumption was supported by recent BEFR studies (e.g., Zhang et al. 2012; Liang et al. 2015) in terms of biodiversity effects, and a majority of forest dynamics studies (e.g., Shugart 1984) in terms of basal area effects.

Management of set-aside has many facets and in this perspective paper we focus on the biodiversity effects of successional age, sowing strategies and landscape context.

The biodiversity effects of energy crop cultivation can also significantly differ from climatic regions and crop types [31] and specific regional circumstances, such as landscape pattern and structure [24, 32].
