Functional Traits and Water Transport Strategies in Lowland Tropical Rainforest Trees.
Understanding how tropical rainforest trees may respond to the precipitation extremes predicted in future climate change scenarios is paramount for their conservation and management. Tree species clearly differ in drought susceptibility, suggesting that variable water transport strategies exist. Usi...
