Another successful #lichen #journalclub led by Ana Fávero on #FunctionalTrait #ecology with 17 attendees from 7 different countries! Know more about this activity of the Early Career Research Committee at ial-lichenology.org/courses-trips/… #YoungResearchers #training #YoungLichenologists

We use #FossilPollen records and #FunctionalTrait data to assess long-terms shifts in community-mean traits, and link this to proxies for climate and disturbances. We find that:

Always wanted to know how #TropicalForests have changed in #FunctionalTrait composition over the last ~10,000y, and how this is driven by #ClimateChange and disturbances? Check out our new publication in Global Change Biology! 👇 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gc… NWO Nieuws #Rubicon #Veni
