  rdf:value "The aim of the functional trait approach is to find characteristics that are comparable across a range of organisms and environments, and to use these to investigate the function of ecosystems and groups of organisms. Functional trait approach, which is frequently used in vegetation studies in recent years, provides important facilities for scientists in ecological and evolutionary biology researches and in our understanding the dynamics of ecosystems."@en ;
