My PhD dissertation is now available here: dx.doi.org/10.25673/118... In the thesis, I showed that trait expression, intraspecific and intraindividual trait variability depend on forest composition and species diversity. Further, they are components that matter for measuring functional diversity

New paper: The composition of Arctic plant communities appears to be more related to fine-scale environmental variation than to large-scale variation in summer temperatures, and microhabitat buffering may thus delay the effects of #ClimateChange at least in W Greenland doi.org/10.1002/ecog... 🌱🧪🌐

🌸Plant diversity dynamics over space and time in a warming Arctic 🌸 Our new study @nature.com analysed plant diversity change in >2000 tundra plots over 4 decades. We found that plants changed unevenly, mostly driven by warming and biotic interactions. www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧵 (1/7) 🌐🧪🌱🌍
