A dendroclimatic assessment of habitat specificity: Use of a functional trait to classify white oak1

2013-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Habitat specificity of tree species has traditionally been determined by identifying synchronous abiotic characteristics and species presence on the landscape. On a local scale this identifies many species as specialists; however, on a regional scale, most tree species are classified as generalists because individual species are present across a wide-range of edaphic and topographic conditions. To improve our ecol...
