“It is logical that species which are adapted to habitats with low nutrient availability have intrinsically nutrient-poor leaves, low photosynthetic and growth rates, a predominance of carbon- based structural defenses (such as leaf toughness), and low rates of tissue turnover ( Grime 1977; Chapin 1980; Coley et al. 19…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
