Spatial isolation is a key driver of population‐level variability in traits and genotypes worldwide. Geographical distance between populations typically increases isolation, but organisms face additional environmental barriers when dispersing between suitable habitat patches. Despite the predicted universal nature of the causes of isolation, global comparisons of isolation effects across taxa and...
Life history strategies are fundamental to the ecology and evolution of organisms and are important for understanding extinction risk and responses to global change. Using global datasets and a multiple response modelling framework we show that trait‐climate interactions are associated with life history strategies for a diverse range of plant species at the global scale. Our modelling framework informs...
Aim
Assess the potential of new predictors (land use, edaphic factors and high‐resolution (HR) topographic and climatic variables, i.e. topo‐climatic) to improve the prediction of plant community functional traits (specific leaf area, vegetative height and seed mass) and species richness in models of mountain grasslands.
Location
The western Swiss Alps.
Methods
Using 912 grassland plots, we constructed...
