Are trait-growth models transferable? Predicting multi-species growth trajectories between ecosystems using plant functional traits.
Plant functional traits are increasingly used to generalize across species, however few examples exist of predictions from trait-based models being evaluated in new species or new places. Can we use functional traits to predict growth of unknown species in different areas? We used three independentl...
