Loss of species richness with land use intensity is explained by a reduction in niche differences

2022-12-20

Abstract excerpt

Increases in land use intensity (LUI) reduce species richness. However, we have a poor understanding of how underlying coexistence mechanisms are altered by land use and whether diversity loss occurs due to changes in plant-plant interactions (competition and facilitation) or in species intrinsic growth rates. We expect that LUI could reduce stabilizing niche differences and the indirect interactions that promote...
