Abstract | Cities differ from rural landscapes: human densities peak in urban areas. Pollutants, waste, energy and nutrients concentrate there. Temperatures and precipitation are higher, air moisture is reduced. Foreign species are more frequent, land-use is often more heterogeneous. With some of these aspects, cities anticipate probable future conditions under global change. We hypothesize that the differences between urban and rural areas act as environmental filters resulting in different plant trait patterns. |
