From traits to flames: leaf traits, plant strategies, and plant flammability across a moisture gradient in a frequently burned subtropical landscape

The distribution of plant functional traits across environmental gradients can reflect species' adaptations to local abiotic conditions. Widely measured leaf traits such as leaf area (LA), specific l...
