Evaluating Functional Diversity: Missing Trait Data and the Importance of Species Abundance Structure and Data Transformation
Functional diversity (FD) is an important component of biodiversity that quantifies the difference in functional traits between organisms. However, FD studies are often limited by the availability of trait data and FD indices are sensitive to data gaps. The distribution of species abundance and trait data, and its transformation, may further affect the accuracy of indices when data is incomplet...
متن کاملPlant Species and Functional Types’ Diversity in Relation to Grazing in Arid and Semi-arid Rangelands, Khabr National Park, Iran
In arid and semi-arid rangelands, grazing as one of the natural or human induced processes has direct and indirect effects on structure and dynamics of plant community and ecosystems. A study was done to analyze the effects of grazing on plant species diversity and Plant Functional Types‘ (PFTs) diversity of arid and semi-arid rangelands. We analyzed plant richness and diversity data from 75 sa...
متن کاملGenetic variation and structure of Alburnoides Nicolausi (Bogutskaya and Coad, 2009) in the Joushan and Houzian rivers (Lorestan Province)
Alburnoides nicolausi is one of the freshwater, benthopelagic species with high ecological importance. This fish is native to Iran and found in the basin Tigris. Considering the lack of information on population genetics of A. nicolausi, the genetic diversity and structure of this valuable species was studied in the present research. For this, A. nicolausi samples were collected from Joushan an...
متن کاملVariation in species diversity and functional traits of sponge communities near human populations in Bocas del Toro, Panama
Recent studies have renewed interest in sponge ecology by emphasizing the functional importance of sponges in a broad array of ecosystem services. Many critically important habitats occupied by sponges face chronic stressors that might lead to alterations in their diversity, relatedness, and functional attributes. We addressed whether proximity to human activity might be a significant factor in...
متن کاملThe importance of rare species: a trait-based assessment of rare species contributions to functional diversity and possible ecosystem function in tall-grass prairies
The majority of species in ecosystems are rare, but the ecosystem consequences of losing rare species are poorly known. To understand how rare species may influence ecosystem functioning, this study quantifies the contribution of species based on their relative level of rarity to community functional diversity using a trait-based approach. Given that rarity can be defined in several different w...
