Today we had the opportunity to ask Peruvians about their thoughts on climate change! It was an enriching experience! #PFTC5

Check out the new Open Traits paper in Nature Ecology and Evolution. In this manuscript, we discuss the importance of #OpenScience practices for trait-based science, and outline ways to accelerate the synthesis of trait data across the tree of life. nature.com/articles/s41559-0…

Have you ever heard about the #traitwheel? It's a "method" to measure standardized #functionaltraits we use on our #PFTC courses. This is part of a presentation to explain the students each step, all the mistakes we made and what we learned and how we improved the process.
