We review the evidence of how organisms and populations are currently responding to
climate change through phenotypic plasticity, genotypic evolution, changes in distribution …

Plant functional traits can predict community assembly and ecosystem functioning and are
thus widely used in global models of vegetation dynamics and land–climate feedbacks. Still …

This study reviews the impacts of climate change on Greek forests, analysing factors such as
climate trends, forest management, biodiversity, genetics, insects, and wildfires, using data …

Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological
characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect …

Earth is home to a remarkable diversity of plant forms and life histories, yet comparatively
few essential trait combinations have proved evolutionarily viable in today's terrestrial …

The frequency and severity of drought are expected to increase due to climate change;
therefore, selection of tree species for afforestation should consider drought resistance of the …

Question Are plant traits more closely correlated with mean annual temperature, or with
mean annual precipitation? Location Global. Methods We quantified the strength of the …

Plant traits–the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological
characteristics of plants and their organs–determine how primary producers respond to …

Motivation Trait data are fundamental to the quantitative description of plant form and
function. Although root traits capture key dimensions related to plant responses to changing …

Vegetation in water‐limited ecosystems relies strongly on access to deep water reserves to
withstand dry periods. Most of these ecosystems have shallow soils over deep groundwater …
