摘要: Functional diversity (FD) measures aim to quantify the of functional traits within species assemblages. FD has been separated into three components: (1) richness – amount trait space filled; (2) evenness abundance distribution in filled space; and (3) divergence degree which is distributed toward extremities space. Most can be assigned one these components. may act either as indicators ecosystem functions, or community assembly processes, though only a fraction their potential explored.
