Abstract / short description:
The Pedon and Stoff subprojects are part of the interdisciplinary research programme Biolog / Diva. Diva focusses on the relationship between Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning in Grassland Ecosystems. In Pedon, the heterogeneity of site properties and water balance parameters within natural grassland stands is recorded and quantified. The Stoff subproject focusses on processes controling interdependences between biodiversity, plant productivity, historical land use, and carbon storage as well as nitrogen mineralization.
