Ecosystem diversity is the hardest to measure precisely, as ecosystems are complex and interconnected systems that can vary greatly in size, structure, and composition. Measuring ecosystem diversity often requires extensive field research and monitoring, and may involve multiple parameters, such as species richness, habitat types, and ecological functions. Additionally, ecosystem diversity is influenced by both biotic and abiotic factors, making it challenging to quantify accurately.
