Fixed factors are number of species (S), Shannon's evenness (H’), and phylogenetic diversity (IAC, imbalance of abundance at the clade; MNND, mean nearest neighbor distance), and community‐level mean of single functional traits (H max, plot‐specific maximum plant height; LN, mean leaf nitrogen content value for individual species used for all plots where the species is found) or multivariate functional trait indices (RaoQ, Quadratic entropy; FDis, Functional dispersion: weighted distances from a weighted centroid in multitrait space), and experimental treatments (T: T C = control, T W = warming, T N = nitrogen addition, T WN = warming and nitrogen addition, and T G = livestock‐grazing), and soil resources (C, soil carbon content; N, soil total nitrogen content; P, soil total phosphorus content). Hierarchical random factor is elevation (2700 m, 3200 m and 3400 m), treatment, and plot. Values are shown for the estimated number of model parameters (k), maximum log‐likelihood (LL), and the information‐theoretic Akaike's information criterion corrected for small samples (AICc), change in AICc relative to the top‐ranked model (ΔAICc), AICc weight (wAICc, model probability), and the marginal and total variance explained (Rm 2, Rc 2) as a measure of the model's goodness of fit.
