Extinction debt and functional traits mediate community saturation over large spatiotemporal scales

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 92, Issue 11, Page 2228-2239, November 2023., 2023
This study is the first to simultaneously evaluate whether (1) community saturation can require lengthy timespans to be reached and (2) there is a limit to the number of ecological strategies that can coexist. Determining if these ideas are supported is fundamental for better understanding the possible outcomes of species invasions and climate change ...
