This summer they continued the work with a focus on specific habitat types and regions to search for species that are still missing from our datasets and global trait databases. In the end of June and beginning of July our workgroup members made two field trips: Ene, Eleonora, Jing, Mohsen and John visited forests and bogs in Southern Estonia, while Riin, Juni and Blanca visited beaches and semi-natural grasslands in Western Estonia. Together they collected leaf, stem and root samples for over 40 species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"461\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"2779\" src=\"https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest4-461x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest4-461x1024.jpg 461w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest4-135x300.jpg 135w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest4-768x1707.jpg 768w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest4-691x1536.jpg 691w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest4.jpg 864w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"2780\" src=\"https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest3-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2780\" srcset=\"https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest3-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest3-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest3-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest3.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"2776\" src=\"https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest2-576x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2776\" srcset=\"https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest2-576x1024.jpeg 576w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest2-169x300.jpeg 169w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest2-768x1365.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest2-864x1536.jpeg 864w, https:\/\/macroecology.ut.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/fieldworkest2.jpeg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year many of our workgroup members did field work in different parts of Estonia to collect data on European plant species above- and belowground traits.
