A meta-analysis of wetland plant traits in relation to the strategies of wetland plants and the impacts on ecosystem functioning
What are trait-trait relationships in wetlands? To what extent the so-called leaf economics traits deviate from terrestrial ecosystems? How traits specific to wetland plant relate to plant strategies? What’s the relationship between wetland plant traits to the ecosystem functioning (e.g. productivity,…
