New handbook for standardised measurement of plant functional traits worldwide

Natalia Pérez-Harguindeguy, +35 more
- 26 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: This new handbook has a better balance between whole-plant traits, leaf traits, root and stem traits and regenerative traits, and puts particular emphasis on traits important for predicting species’ effects on key ecosystem properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

TRY - a global database of plant traits

Jens Kattge, +136 more
TL;DR: TRY as discussed by the authors is a global database of plant traits, including morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants and their organs, which can be used for a wide range of research from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology to biogeography.
Journal ArticleDOI

TRY plant trait database : Enhanced coverage and open access

Jens Kattge, +754 more
- 01 Jan 2020 - 
TL;DR: The extent of the trait data compiled in TRY is evaluated and emerging patterns of data coverage and representativeness are analyzed to conclude that reducing data gaps and biases in the TRY database remains a key challenge and requires a coordinated approach to data mobilization and trait measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

The n‐dimensional hypervolume

Benjamin Blonder, +8 more
- 01 May 2014 - 
TL;DR: This work highlights the conceptual and computational issues that have prevented a more direct approach to measuring hypervolumes and presents a new multivariate kernel density estimation method that resolves many of these problems in an arbitrary number of dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant functional trait change across a warming tundra biome

Anne D. Bjorkman, +146 more
- 04 Oct 2018 - 
TL;DR: Biome-wide relationships between temperature, moisture and seven key plant functional traits across the tundra and over time show that community height increased with warming across all sites, whereas other traits lagged behind predicted rates of change.
