OUR MEASURED TRAITS
Pool-wise CCI and leaf area
Trait values are pooled measurements collected during the 2024 coastal-meadow field campaign and are study observations, not fixed species constants. Only summaries with at least five measurements are shown.
No validated pool-wise trait summary
This species did not meet the ≥5-measurement rule in the supplied CCI or leaf-area summary tables.

How this taxon enters the analysis
These steps show what this record contributes to the 2024 study. They do not turn the taxon name into a remotely sensed measurement.
- 1 · FIELD EVIDENCE1 of 120 plots
Occurrence is verified, but no positive numeric cover value is available for an occupied-plot cover summary.
- 2 · TRAIT ELIGIBILITYNo eligible CCI or leaf-area summary
Neither trait met the documented minimum of five measurements for this taxon, so it contributes no species median to the CCI or leaf-area community-weighted means.
- 3 · MODEL LINKPlot response, not species detection
Plot-level ecological responses are paired with UAV predictors. A fitted model can estimate variation in those responses across the landscape; this record does not train a classifier for Geum rivale.
Interpretation boundary: UAV or satellite imagery does not uniquely identify Geum rivale in this study. Follow the complete field-to-EO workflow →
