Physiological drought responses improve predictions of live fuel moisture dynamics in a Mediterranean forest. [PDF]
, 2018 The moisture content of live fuels is an important determinant of forest flammability. Current approaches for modelling live fuel moisture content typically focus on the use of drought indices.

Mechanisms of Surviving Burial: Dune Grass Interspecific Differences Drive Resource Allocation After Sand Deposition [PDF]
, 2018 Sand dunes are important geomorphic formations of coastal ecosystems that are critical in protecting human populations that live in coastal areas. Dune formation is driven by ecomorphodynamic interactions between vegetation and sediment deposition. While

Multi-Species Prediction of Physiological Traits with Hyperspectral Modeling [PDF]
Plants, 2022 Lack of high-throughput phenotyping is a bottleneck to breeding for abiotic stress tolerance in crop plants. Efficient and non-destructive hyperspectral imaging can quantify plant physiological traits under abiotic stresses; however, prediction models generally are developed for few genotypes of one species, limiting the broader applications of this ...

Political Attitudes Vary with Physiological Traits
Science, 2008 Although political views have been thought to arise largely from individuals' experiences, recent research suggests that they may have a biological basis. We present evidence that variations in political attitudes correlate with physiological traits. In a group of 46 adult participants with strong political beliefs, individuals with measurably lower ...

A multicontinental dataset of butterfly thermal physiological traits. [PDF]
Sci DataButterflies serve as key indicators of climate change impacts such as shifts in emergence timing and shifts in geographic range and distribution. However, the development of commonly used ecological forecasts based on butterfly physiological tolerance of temperature change has lagged behind that of other taxonomic groups.

Coordination of Foliar and Wood Anatomical Traits Contributes to Tropical Tree Distributions and Productivity along the Malay-Thai Peninsula [PDF]
, 2009 Drought is a critical factor in plant species distributions. Much research points to its relevance even in moist tropical regions. Recent studies have begun to elucidate mechanisms underlying the distributions of tropical tree species with respect to ...
