Relative importance of eight uncorrelated biodiversity metrics, geographical, climatic, and soil predictors across multiple thresholds of (A) multifunctionality and (B–D) sets of functions related to C, N, and P cycling. The relative importance of predictors is expressed as the percentage of variance they explain and is based on the absolute value of their standardized regression coefficients. CWM.H and CWM.SLA, community-weighted mean for height and SLA; PSV, phylogenetic species variability; w.FDIS and FDIS, abundance-weighted and nonweighted functional dispersion; w.MNTD and MNTD, weighted and nonweighted mean nearest taxon distance.
