TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open access (2019)
Journal Article

© 2019 The Authors. Global Change Biology published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, af...

Linking Remote Sensing and Geodiversity and their Traits Relevant to Biodiversity – Part I: Soil Characteristics (2019)
Journal Article

In the face of rapid global change it is imperative to preserve geodiversity for the overall conservation of biodiversity. Geodiversity is important for understanding complex biogeochemical and physical processes and is directly and indirectly linked...

Opinion: To advance sustainable stewardship, we must document not only biodiversity but geodiversity (2019)
Journal Article

Challenges and opportunities for biogeography-What can we still learn from von Humboldt? (2019)
Journal Article

Alexander von Humboldt was arguably the most influential scientist of his day. Although his fame has since lessened relative to some of his contemporaries, we argue that his influence remains strong-mainly because his approach to science inspired oth...

Leaf economics and plant hydraulics drive leaf/wood area ratios (2019)
Journal Article

Biomass and area ratios between leaves, stems and roots regulate many physiological and ecological processes. The Huber value Hv (sapwood area/leaf area ratio) is central to plant water balance and drought responses. However, its coordination with ke...

sPlot : a new tool for global vegetation analyses (2019)
Journal Article

Questions: Vegetation-plot records provide information on presence and cover or abundance of plants co-occurring in the same community. Vegetation-plot data are spread across research groups, environmental agencies and biodiversity research centers,... Read More about sPlot : a new tool for global vegetation analyses.
