Forest Conversion Reduces Soil Water Retention in Tropical Rainforest
ABSTRACT Extensive primary forests are being converted to secondary forests and plantations owing to human activities in recent decades, which have substantial effects on soil hydrological processes. However, the potential impact of forest conversion on soil water retention remains poorly understood.

Phenotypic plasticity can facilitate species survival in a variety of conditions that are not possible with a fixed phenotype. Foliar water uptake (FWU), defined as the absorption of water through leaf surfaces, is an important mechanism contributing to plant water balance and drought tolerance in many species.

Functional traits allow ecologists to synthesise general rules of community assembly. In joint species distribution modelling, traits are increasingly used to explain species–environment relationships, with the intention of being able to generalise predictions to other species in other systems.
