Trait-environment relationships are predictive, but not general across species

2020-01-14

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the relationships between organisms and their environments is increasingly important given human impacts on global conditions. However, predicting how community diversity and composition will change in the future remains challenging (Mouquet et al 2015). One recent approach is to use traits to mechanistically inform how environmental conditions affect performance (i.e., trait-environment relationshi...
