Ecometrics: the traits that bind the past and present together
We outline here an approach for understanding the biology of climate change, one that
integrates data at multiple spatial and temporal scales. Taxon‐free trait analysis, or …

Discontinuities, cross‐scale patterns, and the organization of ecosystems
Ecological structures and processes occur at specific spatiotemporal scales, and
interactions that occur across multiple scales mediate scale‐specific (eg, individual …

The relationship between diet and body mass in terrestrial mammals
Diet and body mass are highly important factors in mammalian ecology, and they have also
proven to be powerful paleoecological indicators. Our previous research has proposed a …
