Box 9E. The C-S-R triangle model (Grime 1979). 1 Continued FIGURE 2.
Particular species can engage in any mixture of these three primary strategies, and the m- ture is described by their position within the triangle. The strategies at the three corners are C, competiti- winning species; S, stress-tolerating s- cies; R, ruderalspecies. comment briefly on some other dimensions that Grime's (1977) triangle (Fig.
2) (see also Sects. 6. 1 are not yet so well understood. and 6. 3 of Chapter 7 on growth and allocation) is a two-dimensional scheme.
A C--S axis (Com- tition-winning species to Stress-tolerating spe- Leaf Economics Spectrum cies) reflects adaptation to favorable vs. unfavorable sites for plant growth, and an R- Five traits that are coordinated across species are axis (Ruderal species) reflects adaptation to leaf mass per area (LMA), leaf life-span, leaf N disturbance.
