Are you curious how and why plants affect the microclimate? Is it just shade or is it more complicated than that? Does evapotranspiration matter? Stomatal conductance? We present the first trait based framework for studying microclimates: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…

We discuss how many of these trait-microclimate relationships (e.g. routing depth) are completely unexamined in the literature but much needed to understand plant communities
We also discuss the evidence for plant diversity-microclimate relationships and nature based solutions
