Effects of boreal ground layer shrubs and bryophytes on the diversity, biomass and composition of lichen communities across contrasting ecosystems

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
There has been much recent interest in understanding how abiotic factors such as light, nutrients, and soil moisture affect the composition and biomass of lichen communities. Meanwhile, whether and how ground layer vegetation such as bryophytes and shrubs also influence lichen communities have received much less attention, particularly regarding how ...

Do environmental fluctuations during development affect trait variation? An experimental test with salinity

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Human‐induced climate change is a driver of extinction, with extreme events occurring more frequently. It increases both the amount and fluctuations in environmental stress that organisms experience. In such environments, greater intra‐specific trait variation creates more potential for adaptation through natural selection.

Tall stature and small leaves: ecological strategies that enhance tree growth across the subtropical Brazilian Atlantic Forest

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Ecological strategies reflect the mechanisms used for species to sustain a population. Predicting plant growth in ecological communities is crucial, especially with climate change impacting ecosystem functioning. By employing a large dataset for the subtropical Brazilian Atlantic Forest (BAF), we evaluated whether species' relative growth rates (RGR ...
