What size of N deposition model grid is suitable to detect effects on biodiversity? biodiversity grid size of N deposition

Hintermann & Weber AG | Scale dependent effets of N deposition | | 11 Local vs. landscape scale

Hintermann & Weber AG | Scale dependent effets of N deposition | | 12 Local vs. landscape scale Does plot size matter? Chalcraft et al., Ecology, 89, : …a focus on the effects of N enrichment on biodiversity at small spatial scales may often overestimate (and sometimes underestimate) declines in regional biodiversity by failing to recognize the effects of N on ß diversity. Do we overestimate N deposition effects on regional biodiversity when surveying at a local scale? Is the effect for different groups alike?

Hintermann & Weber AG | Scale dependent effets of N deposition | | 13 Local vs. landscape scale Species richness Oligotrophic species adapted do nutrient poor conditions Landolt et al Target species for the agricultural sector FOEN & FOAG 2008 Arnica montana Centaurea montana

Hintermann & Weber AG | Scale dependent effets of N deposition | | 17 Local vs. landscape scale The plot size matters We overestimated effects of N deposition on regional biodiversity when upscaling from small plots The effect varied for the different groups Species richness little difference Effects of N deposition on oligotrophic species and on target species for the agricultural sector are much stronger on a small scale Generalisations from experimental studies may be critical

Hintermann & Weber AG | Scale dependent effets of N deposition | | 18 Effect of grid size of N deposition model

Hintermann & Weber AG | Scale dependent effets of N deposition | | 19 Grid size resolution Dore et al., Biogeosciences, 9, : In areas with generally low exceedance and for montane vegetation types, the exceedance statistics were more sensitive to model data resolution.

Hintermann & Weber AG | Scale dependent effets of N deposition | | 20 Grid size resolution Does grid size of deposition models matter? What is the biggest grid size of N deposition model to detect effects on biodiversity? Is size the same for different groups?

Hintermann & Weber AG | average of cells containing parts of the transect (average 25% of cells) ➜ grid of 0.5 km side length Mean N deposition of all cells of 1x1 km and Grids with 5, 10, 25 and 50 km side length with its origin at N 45° E 5° Grid size resolution 1 km ● Scale dependent effets of N deposition | |

Hintermann & Weber AG | Scale dependent effets of N deposition | | 26 Grid size resolution Grid size matters The smaller the grid, the stronger are the predicted effect of N deposition No difference between 0.5 and 1 km side length Effects of N deposition on biodiversity were not detected with grids > 5 km side length
