Plant functional traits (PFTs) and aboveground net primary productivity (NPP) are essential components of ecosystem functioning and dynamics. PFT NFT, which stands for PFT-based Net Primary Productivity Fine-grained Tracking, holds great potential for various applications in ecological studies. By combining PFT data with NPP assessments, researchers can gain valuable insights into how different plant characteristics influence ecosystem productivity and functioning. This information can be used to understand vegetation responses to climate change, assess ecosystem health, guide habitat restoration efforts, and inform land management decisions. Furthermore, PFT NFT can contribute to biodiversity monitoring, ecosystem modeling, and the design of sustainable land-use practices, consequently aiding environmental conservation and management efforts.
