Microclimate explains little variation in year‐round decomposition across an Arctic tundra landscape
Litter decomposition represents a major path for atmospheric carbon influx into Arctic soils,
thereby controlling below‐ground carbon accumulation. Yet, little is known about how tundra …

Temporal shifts in the functional composition of Andean forests at different elevations are driven by climate change
Aim Andean forests are a global biodiversity hotspot. They harbour many species living
within narrow climate ranges and a high functional diversity of trees. It remains still unclear …

Extending the CWM approach to intraspecific trait variation: how to deal with overly optimistic standard tests?
Community weighted means (CWMs) are widely used to study the relationship between
community-level functional traits and environment. For certain null hypotheses, CWM …
