AbstractQuestionTrait scaling relationships involve multiple trade‐offs and allometric constraints between the traits of co‐existing species. Alternative trait relationships, particularly between plant size and other traits, are expected in response to combinations of different biotic and abiotic filters. To what extent does the e...... hiện toàn bộ
Environmental filtering and spatial processes in urban riparian forestsJournal of Vegetation Science - Tập 27 Số 5 - Trang 1023-1035 - 2016
Marie‐Hélène Brice, Stéphanie Pellerin, Monique Poulin
AbstractQuestionsWhat are the spatial processes structuring plant trait composition in urban riparian forest communities at different spatial scales? What are the relative roles of local conditions (including historical aspects), landscape context and spatial processes in the community assembly of these forests?... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractQuestionsOne central assumption of trait screening approaches in comparative plant ecology, i.e. simultaneous measurement of traits on a large number of species or populations, is that the species level captures a major part of trait variation. The current development of la...... hiện toàn bộ
Microsite and elevational influences on early forest regeneration after catastrophic windthrowJournal of Vegetation Science - Tập 1 Số 5 - Trang 657-662 - 1990
Chris J. Peterson, Steward T. A. Pickett
Abstract. We compared vegetation establishment in 25 treefall pits and mounds along a hillside elevational gradient in a fourth‐year catastrophic windthrow in eastern North America. Plant communities differed greatly between pits and mounds, with pit microsites having significantly greater species richness, total biomass, and total tree stem density.... hiện toàn bộ
