Yet, while climate-induced biodiversity changes are widely documented elsewhere, few studies have addressed this issue for lowland tropical ecosystems. Here we investigate whether the floristic and functional composition of intact lowland Amazonian forests have been changing by evaluating records from 106 long-term inventory plots spanning 30 years. We analyse three traits that have been hypothesized to respond to different environmental drivers (increase in moisture stress and atmospheric CO2 concentrations): maximum tree size, biogeographic water-deficit affiliation and wood density. Tree communities have become increasingly dominated by large-statured taxa, but to date there has been no detectable change in mean wood density or water deficit affiliation at the community level, despite most forest plots having experienced an intensification of the dry season. However, among newly recruited trees, dry-affiliated genera have become more abundant, while the mortality of wet-affiliated genera has increased in those plots where the dry season has intensified most. Thus, a slow shift to a more dry-affiliated Amazonia is underway, with changes in compositional dynamics (recruits and mortality) consistent with climate-change drivers, but yet to significantly impact whole-community composition. The Amazon observational record suggests that the increase in atmospheric CO2 is driving a shift within tree communities to large-statured species and that climate changes to date will impact forest composition, but long generation times of tropical trees mean that biodiversity change is lagging behind climate change. date: 2019-01 date_type: published official_url: https://doi.org/10.1111/gcb.14413 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green article_type_text: Journal Article verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1603019 doi: 10.1111/gcb.14413 language_elements: English lyricists_name: Lewis, Simon lyricists_id: SLLEW24 actors_name: Cuccu, Clara actors_id: CCCUC40 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Global Change Biology volume: 25 number: 1 pagerange: 39-56 issn: 1354-1013 citation: Esquivel-Muelbert, A; Baker, TR; Dexter, KG; Lewis, SL; Brienen, RJW; Feldpausch, TR; Lloyd, J; ...
