• Climatic and biogeographical drivers of functional diversity in the flora of the Canary Islands 

      Hanz, Dagmar M.; Cutts, Vanessa; Barajas-Barbosa, Martha Paola; Algar, Adam C.; Beierkuhnlein, Carl; Fernández-Palacios, José-María; Field, Richard; Kreft, Holger; Steinbauer, Manuel; Weigelt, Patrick; Irl, Severin D. H. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Aim Functional traits can help us to elucidate biogeographical and ecological processes driving assemblage structure. We analysed the functional diversity of plant species of different evolutionary origins across an island ...
    • Scientific floras can be reliable sources for some trait data in a system with poor coverage in global trait databases 

      Cutts, Vanessa; Hanz, Dagmar M.; Barajas-Barbosa, Martha P.; Algar, Adam C.; Steinbauer, Manuel; Irl, Severin D.H.; Kreft, Holger; Weigelt, Patrick; Fernández-Palacios, José María; Field, Richard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Aim Trait-based approaches are increasingly important in ecology and biogeography, but progress is often hampered by the availability of high-quality quantitative trait data collected in the field. Alternative sources of ...
