Trophic interactions and the relationship between species diversity and ecosystem stability.

The American naturalist - 1 Oct 2005

Thébault Elisa, Loreau Michel

Abstract excerpt

Several theoretical studies propose that biodiversity buffers ecosystem functioning against environmental fluctuations, but virtually all of these studies concern a single trophic level, the primary producers. Changes in biodiversity also affect ecosystem processes through trophic interactions. Therefore, it is important to understand how trophic interactions affect the relationship between biodiversity and the...
