Abstract
The quantification of functional variations in vegetation aids in understanding the response of ecosystems to the changing environment. The determination of variations in the plant functional traits of different plants can help in identifying functionally distinct plants or plant functional types. This chapter discusses the importance of plant functional traits (FTs) in ecosystem functioning. ...
