Climate tolerances and trait choices shape continental patterns of urban tree biodiversity [PDF]
Aim: We propose and test a climate tolerance and trait choice hypothesis of urban macroecological variation in which strong filtering associated with low winter temperatures restricts urban biodiversity while weak filtering associated with warmer ...
