Integrating remote sensing with ecology and evolution to advance biodiversity conservation
Remote sensing has transformed the monitoring of life on Earth by revealing spatial and
temporal dimensions of biological diversity through structural, compositional and functional …

A plant perspective on nitrogen cycling in the rhizosphere
Nitrogen is the major nutrient limiting plant growth in terrestrial ecosystems, and the
transformation of inert nitrogen to forms that can be assimilated by plants is mediated by soil …

Climatic and soil factors explain the two-dimensional spectrum of global plant trait variation
Plant functional traits can predict community assembly and ecosystem functioning and are
thus widely used in global models of vegetation dynamics and land–climate feedbacks. Still …

Plant functional traits have globally consistent effects on competition
Phenotypic traits and their associated trade-offs have been shown to have globally
consistent effects on individual plant physiological functions,,, but how these effects scale up …

Why can't we predict traits from the environment?
Plant functional traits are powerful ecological tools, but the relationships between plant traits
and climate (or environmental variables more broadly) are often remarkably weak. This …

The world‐wide 'fast–slow'plant economics spectrum: a traits manifesto
The leaf economics spectrum (LES) provides a useful framework for examining species
strategies as shaped by their evolutionary history. However, that spectrum, as originally …
