The role of genetic diversity and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal diversity in population recovery of the semi-natural grassland plant species **Succisa pratensis** University of Antwerp Research Institute for Nature and Forest KU Leuven
Background Ecosystem restoration is as a critical tool to counteract the decline of biodiversity and recover vital ecosystem services. Restoration efforts, however, often fall short of meeting their goals. Although functionally important levels of biodiversity can significantly contribute to the outcome of ecosystem restoration, they are often overlooked. One such important facet of biodiversity is within-species genetic diversity, which is ...
Tree diversity is key for promoting the diversity and abundance of forest-associated taxa in Europe KU Leuven Ghent University
News diversity reconsidered: towards a positioning framework for news diversity in the digital era Ghent University
Feeding in amphibians : evolutionary transformations and phenotypic diversity as drivers of feeding system diversity Ghent University
Disentangling tree diversity, tree identity and edge effects : arthropod diversity and functioning Ghent University
A comparison of two approaches for measuring interdisciplinary research output: The disciplinary diversity of authors vs the disciplinary diversity of the reference list KU Leuven
© 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. This study investigates the convergence of two bibliometric approaches to the measurement of interdisciplinary research: one based on analyzing disciplinary diversity in the reference list of publications, the other based on the disciplinary diversity of authors of publications. In particular we measure the variety, balance, disparity and integrated diversity index of, respectively, single-author, ...
Synthesis and future research directions linking tree diversity to growth, survival, and damage in a global network of tree diversity experiments KU Leuven Ghent University
Diversity Checker: Toward recommendations for improving journalism with respect to diversity KU Leuven
The Diversity Checker is a tool that aims to make it easier for journalists to author their texts with diversity in mind. To provide helpful hints for them in this respect, it is necessary to define how to quantify diversity so that this can be programmed into the tool. At this early stage in the development of the tool, we present a two-fold contribution. First, we offer an analysis on what we mean by "improving diversity". Second, we present ...
Rapid evolution of hosts begets species diversity at the cost of intraspecific diversity KU Leuven
Ecosystems are complex food webs in which multiple species interact and ecological and evolutionary processes continuously shape populations and communities. Previous studies on eco-evolutionary dynamics have shown that the presence of intraspecific diversity affects community structure and function, and that eco-evolutionary feedback dynamics can be an important driver for its maintenance. Within communities, feedbacks are, however, often ...
