title: Trait-based assembly rules across climatic gradients of European grasslands are affected little by extreme drought
abstract: Changes in climate such as extreme drought events might interfere with grassland ecosystem processes. European grasslands support a rich flora with high small-scale species density, mirroring complex mechanisms of coexistence in different habitat templates. Do these mechanisms differ in relation to climate, soil and land use history? Are they affected by extreme drought? We investigated fine-scale patterns of trait-based community assembly in European grasslands across continental and experiment
