Context ResultsMethods Aims Take home message 2 Trait-based analysis to assess response of species to environmental changes In general : species = mean trait value

Context ResultsMethods Aims Take home message 2 Trait-based analysis to assess response of species to environmental changes In general : species = mean trait value Intraspecific functional variability = a concern for ecologist

Context ResultsMethods Aims Take home message 2 Trait-based analysis to assess response of species to environmental changes In general : species = mean trait value But Intraspecific functional variability = a concern for ecologist Especially at very local scale

Context ResultsMethods Aims Take home message 3 To explore the extent of intraspecific functional variability at the population level (intra- population functional variability) along a natural environmental gradient To highlight study species functional response to the same local environmental gradient
