Dear researcher i would like to know about functional traits. How should be considered functional traits in any Forest ecosystem ? How we can traits be measured or inferred? Are the traits correlated or traded-off. Despite which, and how many, traits should be assessed and monitored in particular study site? And are the functional traits various with respect to region or location habitat, altitude gradient and most importantly how should trait data be analysed?
