human-induced decline in global biodiversity across all trophic levels
reduces the ability of ecosystems to maintain key ecosystem
functions. Extirpation of vertebrates and invertebrates from
ecosystems, i.e., defaunation, alters the structure, composition, and
strength of interactions within and between trophic levels and
therefore the functioning of the ecosystem. Hence, defaunation can
weaken interactions such as those between the aboveground
invertebrate and belowground decomposer communities, or between the
soil arthropod community and their physicochemical environment.
Moreover, defaunation often operates in a size-selective, non-random
manner, with larger species disappearing before smaller-sized species
that all have different impacts on how the ecosystem responds to
these losses. Hence, the big question is: how does the loss of
vertebrates and invertebrates affect ecosystem processes and
functioning in grassland ecosystems? I will try to provide answers to this question based on research I conducted in many different
ecosystems across the globe over the past 20 years.</span><br></p>
