Abstract:

The Yellow River Delta is selected as the study area and the relationship between plant diversity and ecosystem multifunctionality is explored. The species richness, Shannon index and Simpson index are positively related to ecosystem multifunctionality, but species richness has a larger effect than Shannon index and Simpson index. High biodiversity has been shown to be especially important for simultaneously sustaining multiple ecosystem functions at high levels. Soil salinity is the main environmental factor that affects the plant diversity and ecosystem multifunctionality. High Soil salinity directly decreases the plant diversity, and indirectly results in the descend of ecosystem multifunctionality.

Key words: plant diversity, ecosystem multifunctionality, the Yellow River Delta
