Description: Biodiversity and Ecosystem Function by Ernst-Detlef Schulze, Harold A. Mooney Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description One is that we unfortunately do not know in detail the conseĀ quences of these massive alterations in terms of how the biosphere as a whole operates or even, for that matter, the functioning of localized ecosystems. How are the many services that ecosystems provide to humanity altered by modifications of ecosystem composition? Publisher Description With the accelerating loss of biodiversity there is increasing concern about how this loss may be affecting ecosystem processes, or services, that are of benefit to human well being. The limited studies that address the principal question directly, species numbers versus system function, are evaluated. Moreover, the degree of redundancy within systems, the ubiquity of keystone species, the tightness of species interactions from mutualisms to food webs, the resilience of systems to perturbation, the interactions of landscape units are explored, as is also how policy decisions are driven in this research area. This book brings together the disciplines of population biology and ecoysystem science, both directed toward evaluating the consequences of human-driven disruptions of natural systems.
