Current evidence suggests that there is a positive relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, but few studies have addressed tropical ecosystems where the highest levels of biodiversity occur. We develop two hypotheses for the implications of generalizing from temperate studies to tropical ecosystems, and discuss the need for more tropical research.
目前的证据表明，生物多样性与生态系统功能之间存在积极关系，但很少有研究涉及到生物多样性水平最高的热带生态系统。我们提出了两个关于将温带研究推广到热带生态系统的意义的假设，并讨论了需要更多的热带研究。
