Description:Forest biodiversity is critical for many ecosystem functions and services. Yet, it remains uncertain how plant functional diversity influences ecosystem functioning across environmental gradients and contiguous larger areas. We integrated remote sensing and terrestrial biosphere modeling to explore functional diversity– productivity relationships at multiple spatial scales for a heterogeneous forest ecosystem in Switzerland. We initialized forest structure and composition in the ecosystem demography model (ED2) through a combination of ground-based surveys, airborne laser scanning and imaging spectroscopy for forest patches at 10 × 10-m spatial grain. We derived morphological and physiological forest traits and productivity from model simulations
