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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disturbance maintains alternative biome states.
TL;DR: It is shown that, for a wide range of environmental conditions, fire feedbacks maintain savannas and forests as alternative biome states in both the Neotropics and the Afrotropics and suggests that disturbance is a general factor driving and maintaining alternative biomeStates and vegetation mosaics in the tropics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fire drives functional thresholds on the savanna–forest transition
TL;DR: The results are consistent with the hypothesis that forests and savannas are two coexisting stable states with contrasting patterns of function and diversity that are regulated by fire-plant feedbacks and shed light on the mechanism driving each state.
Journal ArticleDOI
The lanky and the corky: Fire-escape strategies in savanna woody species
TL;DR: In this article, the authors are grateful to the Fundacao de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado de Sao Paulo (FAPESP), the Coordenacado de Aperfeicoamento de Pessoal de Nivel Superior (CAPES), and the Spanish Government (VIRRA and TREVOL projects, CGL2009-12048/BOS and CGL2012-39938-C02-00) for financial support and the scholarships granted to the authors.

TL;DR: The results indicate that including intraspecific trait variability will contribute to a better understanding of the processes driving patterns of functional niche occupancy across plant communities and coexisting species tend to be more functionally similar rather than more functionally specialized.
