ENVIRONMENTAL HETEROGENEITY EFFECTS ON DIVERSITY AND NITROUS OXIDE EMISSIONS FROM SOIL IN RESTORED PRAIRIE
Ecological theory predicts that high environmental heterogeneity causes high biodiversity. Theory further predicts that more biodiversity results in greater ecosystem functioning. These theoretical predictions were evaluated in three studies using grassland restorations from agriculture.
