Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

Overall, the studies of SP2 showed that that the positive effects of biodiversity on forest productivity are primarily associated with local tree-tree interactions rather than processes operating at the community scale. Therefore, analyses of these local-scale interactions are crucial to advance our mechanistic understanding of diversity effects in forests.
