Functional structure and specialization in three tropical plant-hummingbird interaction networks across an elevational gradient in Costa Rica (2015, background): “Functional diversity describes the range, distribution and abundance of trait values of species in a community (Tilman et al. 1997, Díaz and Cabido 2001) and has frequently been used to infer potential mechanisms of community assembly, such as environmental filtering and competition (Cornwell et…”
Understanding biodiversity-ecosystem service relationships in urban areas: A comprehensive literature review (2017, unknown): “However, it is still not clear which functional biodiversity metric chiefly drives ecosystem processes and service delivery (Dias et al. 2013).”
Plant functional effects on ecosystem services (2013, background): “Such difficulties justify the experimental approaches with designs aimed at disentangling CWM from FD effects (Dias et al. 2013).”
Relative contributions of plant traits and soil microbial properties to mountain grassland ecosystem services (2013, methodology): “…set of plant trait parameters, CWM parameters were fitted first, followed by FDvar parameters following Díaz et al. (2007), assuming that functional variance effects are only of interest beyond those main effects of functional mean effects (with which they are often correlated; Dias et al. 2013).”
Functional flower traits and their diversity drive pollinator visitation (2017, background): “Dias et al. (2013) proposed that in order to disentangle the effects of functional diversity and community composition (mass-ratio) both should be considered within the same analysis.”
