Predominance of abiotic drivers in the relationship between species diversity and litterfall production in a tropical karst seasonal rainforest
Forest Ecology and Management(2019)
Abstract
•Tree diversity and stand basal area had positive direct effects on litterfall.•Litterfall decreases with tree diameter variation induced by abiotic factors.•Abiotic factors are dominant drivers for both tree diversity and litterfall.
