Shifts and plasticity of plant leaf mass per area and leaf size among slope aspects in a subalpine meadow

Abstract The composition of vegetation on a slope frequently changes substantially owing to the different micro‐environments of various slope aspects. To understand how the slope aspect affects the vegetation changes, we examined the variations in leaf mass per area (LMA) and leaf size (LS) within a...
