Global beta-diversity of angiosperm trees is shaped by Quaternary climate change.
As Earth’s climate has varied strongly through geological time, studying the impacts of past climate change on biodiversity helps to understand the risks from future climate change. However, it remains unclear how paleoclimate shapes spatial variation in biodiversity. Here, we assessed the influence of Quaternary climate change on spatial dissimilarity...Xu, Wu-Bing ; Guo, Wen-Yong ; Serra-Diaz, Josep M. ; Schrodt, Franziska ; Eiserhardt, Wolf L. …

The global spectrum of plant form and function: enhanced species-level trait dataset.
Here we provide the ‘Global Spectrum of Plant Form and Function Dataset’, containing species mean values for six vascular plant traits. Together, these traits –plant height, stem specific density, leaf area, leaf mass per area, leaf nitrogen content per dry mass, and diaspore (seed or spore) mass – define the... -
