Resistance and resilience to changing climate and fire regime depend on plant functional traits

Summary Changing disturbance–climate interactions will drive shifts in plant communities: these effects are not adequately quantified by environmental niche models used to predict future species distributions. We quantified the effects of more frequent fire and lower rainfall – as projected to occur under a warming and drying climate – on population responses of shrub species in biodiverse M editerranean‐climate type shrublands near E neabba,...
