Interactive and unimodal relationships between plant biomass, abiotic factors, and plant diversity in global grasslands

Abstract Grasslands cover approximately a third of the Earth’s land surface and account for about a third of terrestrial carbon storage. Yet, we lack strong predictive models of grassland plant biomass, the primary source of carbon in grasslands. This lack of predictive ability may arise from the as...
