If you work with individual trait variation you may be interested in our latest perspective paper where we propose a way to test how ITV affects trait spaces. #traitecology☘️🍀

New Tansley Insight in New Phytologist: The path toward a unified plant trait space: synthesizing plant functional diversity.

Why a common trait space matters, how to build it, and what it enables.

Extremely excited to be part of this collaborative effort led by Meelis Pärtel and @macroecologyut.bsky.social

In a recent paper @Nature, Gross et al. 2024 found an expected increase in functional diversity along an aridity gradient. In our preprint, we offer a different perspective where more nuanced differences are found @cpcarmona.bsky.social @e-beccari.bsky.social #Macroecology #FunctionalTraits

I can’t think of a better place to be in early June than Pontevedra or a better bunch of people to share it with! 🌿 We’ll be organizing a session at the conference: Expanding the frontiers of trait-based ecology: novel applications across taxa and scales. Please send your contributions!
