This study examined the aquatic plant
communities of Pine Lake using an approach popular
in terrestrial plant ecology (Cornwall et al., 2006) but largely unprecedented under water. This approach measures plant species diversity and the
corresponding functional traits of these species along environmental gradients in order to elucidate the role that habitat plays in shaping community composition.
