Reduced competition enhances community temporal stability under conditions of increasing environmental stress
Original language description
The stress gradient hypothesis predicts a switch from competition to facilitation, under increasing environmental stress. However, it is unclear how important is the change in competition and facilitation balance (i.e., the net outcome of plant and plant interactions) along the stress gradient in the regulation of community temporal stability (i.e., the inverse of temporal variability in total biomass). Increasing environmental stress may enhance community temporal stability by reduced competition or eventually by leading to facilitative interactions between the dominant and subordinate species. Here, we present the results of a 5 yr mesocosm experiment that demonstrates the effects of interspecific interactions on the temporal stability of a riparian community across different drought stress scenarios. We constructed artificial communities of dominant species (Carex elata) and three subordinate species to simulate the independent effects of environmental stress and interspecific interactions. Using
