Heterogeneity of the Earth's abiotic surface and subsurface (geodiversity) is increasingly recognised as an important driver of biodiversity. Theoretically, species' traits should match to abiotic conditions in the local environment. Here, we test this for the first time at a continental extent by analysing the relationships between geodiversity and plant trait diversity in forested vegetation plots across Europe, at three plot sizes (100, 400 and 1000 m²).

植物性状多样性和地质多样性之间有什么关系？基于情节的泛欧分析


地球非生物表面和地下（地质多样性）的异质性越来越被认为是生物多样性的重要驱动力。从理论上讲，物种的性状应该与当地环境中的非生物条件相匹配。在这里，我们通过分析欧洲三种样地大小（100、400 和 1000 m²）的森林植被样地的地质多样性和植物性状多样性之间的关系，首次在大陆范围内对此进行了测试。
