TRY plant trait database : Enhanced coverage and open access

Jens Kattge, +754 more
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

Global trait–environment relationships of plant communities

Helge Bruelheide, +118 more
TL;DR: It is shown that global trait composition is captured by two main dimensions that are only weakly related to macro-environmental drivers, which reflect the trade-offs at the species level but are weakly associated with climate and soil conditions at the global scale.
Journal ArticleDOI

BioTIME: A database of biodiversity time series for the Anthropocene

Maria Dornelas, +286 more
TL;DR: The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and abundances in ecological assemblages through time to enable users to calculate temporal trends in biodiversity within and amongst assemblage using a broad range of metrics.
Journal ArticleDOI

sPlot – A new tool for global vegetation analyses

Helge Bruelheide, +184 more
TL;DR: The sPlot database as mentioned in this paper contains 1,121,244 vegetation plots, which comprise 23,586,216 records of plant species and their relative cover or abundance in plots collected worldwide between 1885 and 2015.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dinâmica da comunidade e populações arbóreas da borda e interior de um remanescente florestal na Serra da Mantiqueira, Minas Gerais, em um intervalo de cinco anos (1999-2004)

TL;DR: The dynamics of the tree community and 26 component populations was investigated in a fragment of tropical semideciduous forest in Piedade do Rio Grande, SE Brazil, based on surveys done in 1999 and 2004, and showed a more accelerated dynamics on the fragment edge than in its interior.
