We made it! 🥳🥳 Predatory journals can now call me "Dr. Trinity" without much shame. Special thanks to Macroecology UT and Carlos Perez Carmona for all these years of collaboration and intellectual support, and to Petr Keil for such a nice discussion and so many amazing questions!

Just moved my Hugo/Blogdown website to Quarto. Updating and posting new content seems much easier now. Short post on how this migration works diegopftrindade.netlify.app/posts/rstats/q…

Have you ever been curious about the origin and maintenance of the extraordinary #biodiversity in uplands? If so, check out this thread about Old, climatically buffered, infertile landscapes (OCBILs) and our latest findings in the Brazilian OCBILs published in Journal of Ecology.

Interested in plant functional traits? Or just in traits of any organism? Check our discussion in nature on how trait selection influences (or not) the characteristics of synthetic functional spaces like the global spectrum of plant form and function: rdcu.be/dfA5P
