Novel evidence for within-species leaf economics spectrum at multiple spatial scales

Novel evidence for within-species leaf economics spectrum at multiple spatial scales

Leaf economics spectrum (LES), characterizing covariation among a suite of leaf traits relevant to carbon and nutrient economics, has been examined largely among species but hardly within species. In addition, very little attempt has been made to examine whether the existence of LES depends on spati...
