TL;DR: This paper conducted a meta-analysis of the relative extent of ITV within and among plant communities worldwide, using a data set encompassing 629 communities (plots) and 36 functional traits.

TL;DR: A mechanistic community model is developed to illustrate how species turnover in future communities might lag behind simple expectations based on species' range shifts with unlimited dispersal, and support the view that accounting for disequilibrium range dynamics will be essential for realistic forecasts of patterns of biodiversity under climate change.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey of the state of the art in the field of landscape ecology, including the following institutions: 1. University of Grenoble Alpes, CNRS, University Savoie Mont Blanc, LECA, Grenobles, France 2 Department of Biology, McGill University, Montréal, Québec, Canada 3 Department of Forest Resources Management, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia

TL;DR: It is argued that the traditional null model approach can only identify a single main process at a time and is suggested to rather use a family of null models to disentangle intertwined assembly processes acting across spatial and evolutionary scales.

TL;DR: How the combination of abiotic stress and biotic interactions shape the functional diversity of alpine grasslands at different spatial scales is revealed, and the importance of phenotype variation between individuals for community assembly processes at fine spatial scale is highlighted.
