Responses of plant diversity to precipitation change are strongest at local spatial scales and in drylands

L. Korell, H. Auge, et al.

Discover how changes in precipitation impact plant diversity, especially in dry environments. This compelling study by Lotte Korell, Harald Auge, Jonathan M. Chase, W. Stanley Harpole, and Tiffany M. Knight reveals that even small alterations in precipitation can lead to significant shifts in biodiversity, emphasizing the need for awareness regarding the fragility of dryland ecosystems in the face of climate change.
