A meta-analysis of zooplankton functional traits influencing ecosystem function
Ecology, 2015AbstractThe use of functional traits to characterize community composition has been proposed as a more effective way to link community structure to ecosystem functioning. Organismal morphology, body stoichiometry, and physiology can be readily linked to large‐scale ecosystem processes through functional traits that inform on interspecific and species ...

Trait Extraversion and Dopamine Function
Social and Personality Psychology Compass, 2015Abstract An influential theory within personality neuroscience suggests that trait extraversion is underpinned by individual differences in dopamine function. In a review of the relevant literature, we evaluate this theory in light of the evidence from molecular genetics, neuroimaging, and psychopharmacology.

Abstract In the extensive literature on what it means for a biological trait to have a function, philosophers and biologists have given the notion of function star billing. They have paid little attention to the notion of trait appearing in the supporting role. My goal in this chapter is to turn the spotlight onto this fundamental notion

Functional traits and trait diversity of leaves: palaeoecological perspectives
Functional traits were originally defined as any characteristic of an organism that contributes to fitness. From this autecological perspective, trait-based research has considerably expanded into approaches of ecosystem analysis that also have high potential for palaeoecological research.Anita Roth-Nebelsick +1 more

Hierarchical models and functional traits
2006Hierarchical models for animal abundance prediction are conceptually elegant. They are generally more parsimonous than non-hierarchical models derived from the same data, give relatively robust predictions and automatically provide consistent output at multiple (spatio-temporal) scales.
