Widespread shifts in body size within populations and assemblages (2023)
Journal Article
Martins, I. S., Schrodt, F., Blowes, S. A., Bates, A. E., Bjorkman, A. D., Brambilla, V., …Dornelas, M. (2023). Widespread shifts in body size within populations and assemblages. Science, 381(6662), 1067-1071. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.adg6006

Biotic responses to global change include directional shifts in organismal traits. Body size, an integrative trait that determines demographic rates and ecosystem functions, is thought to be shrinking in the Anthropocene. Here, we assessed the preval...

Sensitivity of South American tropical forests to an extreme climate anomaly (2023)
Journal Article
Bennett, A. C., Rodrigues de Sousa, T., Monteagudo-Mendoza, A., Esquivel-Muelbert, A., Morandi, P. S., Coelho de Souza, F., …Phillips, O. L. (2023). Sensitivity of South American tropical forests to an extreme climate anomaly. Nature Climate Change, 13(9), 967-974. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41558-023-01776-4

The tropical forest carbon sink is known to be drought sensitive, but it is unclear which forests are the most vulnerable to extreme events. Forests with hotter and drier baseline conditions may be protected by prior adaptation, or more vulnerable be...

Leaf metabolic traits reveal hidden dimensions of plant form and function (2023)
Journal Article
Walker, T. W. N., Schrodt, F., Allard, P., Defossez, E., Jassey, V. E. J., Schuman, M. C., …Peñuelas, J. (2023). Leaf metabolic traits reveal hidden dimensions of plant form and function. Science Advances, 9(35), Article eadi402. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.adi4029

The metabolome is the biochemical basis of plant form and function, but we know little about its macroecological variation across the plant kingdom. Here, we used the plant functional trait concept to interpret leaf metabolome variation among 457 tro... Read More about Leaf metabolic traits reveal hidden dimensions of plant form and function.
