Linked from
The 155 pages that link to Biodiversity, each with the reason it gives.
PollinationRelated: Pollination supports plant reproduction and the ecological relationships built around flowering plants.
Ecosystem serviceRelated: Biodiversity supports ecosystem processes, though its value is not limited to human benefits.
Crop rotationRelated: A broader crop mix can provide more varied habitats and resources on farmland.
Urban ecologyRelated: Urban ecology measures how city conditions affect the variety of organisms and habitats.
Keystone speciesRelated: Keystone effects are often identified by changes in local species diversity after a species is removed.
GrasslandRelated: Grasslands support distinctive plant, insect, bird, and mammal communities.
PeatlandRelated: Peatlands support specialized species adapted to waterlogged, nutrient-poor conditions.
EcologyRelated: Ecological interactions help shape biodiversity and its distribution.
Primary productionRelated: Differences in production help determine which species and ecological interactions an ecosystem can sustain.
ReforestationRelated: Species composition and habitat quality determine how much biodiversity reforestation supports.
PaleobiogeographyRelated: Past geographic changes help explain how present-day diversity arose and is distributed.
Blue carbonRelated: Blue-carbon habitats also support diverse coastal species, making conservation benefits broader than carbon storage.
EcosystemRelated: Biodiversity describes the variety of living components within and across ecosystems.
Old-growth forestRelated: Old-growth features provide specialized habitat for species that depend on mature forest conditions.
Riparian zoneRelated: The mix of water, land, and changing disturbance supports diverse communities.
TranshumanceRelated: Seasonal grazing can maintain varied habitats, though outcomes depend on intensity and location.
Ecosystem engineerRelated: New or altered habitats can change which species occur and how many coexist.
Ecosystem engineeringRelated: Engineered structures can create, remove, or connect habitat for different species.
PeatRelated: Peat deposits form distinctive habitats, and extraction can damage their species and ecological communities.
IntercroppingRelated: Adding crop species changes field habitat and can support more varied biological communities.
Deep ecologyRelated: The Deep Ecology Platform calls for protecting the richness and diversity of life.
AntRelated: Ant diversity and abundance make them useful indicators of ecological change.
SilvopastureRelated: Tree cover and managed pasture can create habitat features absent from treeless grazing land.
TaxonRelated: Counts of recognized taxa shape estimates of biodiversity.
Edge effectsRelated: Edge-associated gains in local species counts can coexist with losses of interior specialists.
Perennial plantRelated: Perennial plant communities can support diverse organisms across seasons.
Plant-based dietRelated: Food production choices can affect habitats and species diversity.
PollinatorRelated: Pollinator activity supports reproduction in many wild plants and helps sustain diverse communities.
Restoration ecologyRelated: Biodiversity is one dimension of recovery, though it does not by itself establish ecosystem function.
Botanical gardenRelated: Gardens conserve and interpret plant diversity beyond the boundaries of natural habitats.
Forest ecologyRelated: Its patterns and effects are central to understanding forest communities.
Aquatic ecosystemRelated: Its measurement helps assess how aquatic communities respond to stress and conservation.
NematodeRelated: Nematodes are exceptionally diverse and abundant in many ecosystems.
Rotational grazingRelated: Grazing timing and intensity can shift plant and wildlife habitat conditions.
WindbreakRelated: Planted barriers can provide habitat and movement routes for some wildlife.
ForestryRelated: Species richness and habitat quality are central measures of forest conservation outcomes.
Rangeland managementRelated: Grazing intensity and timing can reshape species composition and habitat structure.
Wild boarRelated: In introduced ranges, boar predation and rooting can reduce native species and alter habitats.
Forest certificationRelated: Forest standards often set requirements for conserving habitats and species.
AnoxiaRelated: Persistent anoxia excludes many organisms and reshapes ecological communities.
Coastal wetlandRelated: Wetland habitat mosaics sustain diverse plants, animals, and microbial communities.
Forest diebackRelated: Dieback changes habitat and resources, benefiting some species while harming others.
Sustainable useRelated: Sustainable use concerns not only harvested populations but also biological diversity.
BiosphereRelated: Biodiversity measures a central dimension of the biosphere's living variety.
GlyphosateRelated: Glyphosate-driven weed control can alter food and habitat available to other organisms.
Mesopredator releaseRelated: Released mesopredators can reduce vulnerable prey and alter local species diversity.
Natural History Museum, LondonRelated: The museum's biological collections document biodiversity across places and historical periods.
RangelandRelated: Rangeland management influences habitat diversity and the species that depend on it.
Sustainable harvestingRelated: Selective or excessive extraction can reduce species abundance and genetic diversity.
EcocentrismRelated: Its conservation is a central practical concern where ecological wholes have moral value.
