Heterogeneous environments shape invader impacts: integrating environmental, structural and functional effects by isoscapes and remote sensing
Abstract Spatial heterogeneity of ecosystems crucially influences plant performance, while in return plant feedbacks on their environment may increase heterogeneous patterns. This is of particular relevance for exotic plant invaders that transform native ecosystems, yet, approaches integrating geosp...
