Quantifying the effects of ecological constraints on trait expression using novel trait‐gradient analysis parameters
Abstract Complex processes related to biotic and abiotic forces can impose limitations to assembly and composition of plant communities. Quantifying the effects of these constraints on plant functional traits across environmental gradients, and among communities, remains challenging. We define ecolo...
