Variable General Info
Multfunctionality score to provide ecosystem services ?Comment:Multifunctionality flowers depict the relative abilities of each seed mix to provide ecosystem services. Ability to provide erosion control was assessed using native cover (in 2018) and native stem density (in 2018). Ability to provide weed resistance was assessed using weed cover (in 2018) and bare ground cover (in 2018). Ability to provide pollinator resources was assessed using inflorescence production (total inflorescences produced, 2016–2018) and floral richness (total species that produced inflorescences, 2016–2018). The seed mix with the highest value for each variable was scored as a 1.0 and other seed mixes were scored as a relative proportion of that total. For clarity, we present each seed mix’s multifunctionality score as a percentage out of 100. Runs are entered in ESML providing result values for each seed mix treatment (pollinator, diversity, and economy). |
