Environmental heterogeneity influences liana community differentiation across a Neotropical rainforest landscape. [PDF]
Ecol EvolBy analyzing liana community variation among land units (LUs) that differ in geomorphology and soil properties along a 640‐ha tropical rainforest landscape in a neotropical reserve, we found strong evidence supporting our hypothesis that environmental heterogeneity, as represented by discrete LUs, promotes differentiation in liana composition across ...

Ecology Letters, Volume 26, Issue 12, Page 2098-2109, December 2023., 2023 Our results demonstrated the complex pathways in which functional traits scale up from individuals to communities in species‐rich tropical forests. Abstract We tested the idea that functional trade‐offs that underlie species tolerance to drought drive shifts in community composition via their effects on demographic processes and subsequently on shifts ...
