What is it about?

We show that, in addition to species richness, plant evolutionary history plays a critical role in regulating year-to-year variation of biomass production in grasslands. We also show that multiple factors, including biodiversity and climate, jointly reduce annual variation in grassland productivity.

Why is it important?

In the face of climate change, understanding the causes of variability in key ecosystem services such as biomass production is essential.
