Global decoupling of functional and phylogenetic diversity in plant communities (2024)
Journal Article
Hähn, G. J. A., Damasceno, G., Alvarez-Davila, E., Aubin, I., Bauters, M., Bergmeier, E., Biurrun, I., Bjorkman, A. D., Bonari, G., Botta-Dukát, Z., Campos, J. A., Čarni, A., Chytrý, M., Ćušterevska, R., de Gasper, A. L., De Sanctis, M., Dengler, J., Dolezal, J., El-Sheikh, M. A., Finckh, M., …Bruelheide, H. (2024). Global decoupling of functional and phylogenetic diversity in plant communities. Nature Ecology and Evolution, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41559-024-02589-0

Plant communities are composed of species that differ both in functional traits and evolutionary histories. As species’ functional traits partly result from their individual evolutionary history, we expect the functional diversity of communities to i...

What is the Relationship Between Plant Trait Diversity and Geodiversity? A Plot‐Based, Pan‐European Analysis (2024)
Journal Article
Vernham, G., Bailey, J., Field, R., & Schrodt, F. (2024). What is the Relationship Between Plant Trait Diversity and Geodiversity? A Plot‐Based, Pan‐European Analysis. Global Ecology and Biogeography, 33(11), Article e13904. https://doi.org/10.1111/geb.13904

Aim
Heterogeneity of the Earth's abiotic surface and subsurface (geodiversity) is increasingly recognised as an important driver of biodiversity. Theoretically, species' traits should match to abiotic conditions in the local environment. Here, we te... Read More about What is the Relationship Between Plant Trait Diversity and Geodiversity?

The status and future of essential geodiversity variables (2024)
Journal Article
Schrodt, F., Vernham, G., Bailey, J., Field, R., Gordon, J. E., Gray, M., Hjort, J., Hoorn, C., Hunter Jr., M. L., Larwood, J., Lausch, A., Monge-Ganuzas, M., Miller, S., van Ree, D., Seijmonsbergen, A. C., Zarnetske, P. L., & Kissling, W. D. (2024). The status and future of essential geodiversity variables. Philosophical Transactions A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 382(2269), Article 20230052. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsta.2023.0052

Rapid environmental change, natural resource overconsumption and increasing concerns about ecological sustainability have led to the development of 'Essential Variables' (EVs). EVs are harmonized data products to inform policy and to enable effective... Read More about The status and future of essential geodiversity variables.
