Synthesis of joint research: Understanding how species geographic distributions shift in response to environmental change has critical relevance for understanding current patterns of plant biodiversity and implications of climate change. Reconstructing species past range shifts, monitoring modern biodiversity and assessing the magnitude and distribution of intraspecific trait variation in plant communities provide useful ways to gain insight to past and present biogeography of species and also to evaluate performance of species distribution models over time scales.
