This session aims to bring together scientists interested in advancing our fundamental understanding of vegetation and whole-ecosystem processes. This year we have a special focus on dryland mechanisms (Grünzweig et al. 2022). We are interested in contributions focused on advancing process- and hypothesis-driven understanding of plant ecophysiology, biodiversity and ecosystem function. We welcome studies on a range of scales from greenhouse and mesocosm experiments to large field manipulative experiments, remote sensing studies and process-based modelling. We encourage contributions of novel ideas and hypotheses in particular those from early stage researchers and hope the session can create an environment where such ideas can be discussed freely.
