Beyond climate control on species range: The importance of soil data to predict distribution of Amazonian plant species (2018, background): “However, even at global-scale, edaphic variables can better explain ecological patterns (e.g. the variation in some leaf functional traits) than climatic variables (Maire et al., 2015).”
Global ecosystem thresholds driven by aridity (2020, background): “Plants typically reduce 15 their leaf area to adapt to dry conditions (19), often increasing their leaf-mass/area ratio, nitrogen content and relative photosynthetic capacity per unit of leaf area (20).”
Being John Harper: Using evolutionary ideas to improve understanding of global patterns in plant traits (2018, background): “However, nonsignificant relationships between LMA and measures of aridity are also common (Maire et al., 2015; Moreno, Bertiller, & Carrera, 2010; Ordonez et al., 2009; Ordoñez et al., 2009).”
Climate, soil and plant functional types as drivers of global fine‐root trait variation (2017, background): “2014), similar to what has been performed for leaf traits (e.g. Wright et al. 2005b; Maire et al. 2015).”
A global scale mechanistic model of photosynthetic capacity (LUNA V1.0) (2016, background): “…capacity can also be improved by incor- porating a species-specific mesophyll and stomatal conduc- tance (Medlyn et al., 2011), by analyzing properties such as leaf life span (Wright et al., 2004), and by considering soil pH, nutrient availability and water availability (Maire et al., 2015).”
