Energy metabolism, development and fecundity are key traits by which species respond to a changing environment. However, data on these key traits is scattered throughout the literature. In the NWO ShareTrait-project we have developed a platform for the collection, reformatting and standardization of trait data. We now want to upscale and transform this platform into a valuable resource the wider scientific community. To do so, we envision a top-down approach by partnering with key journals to mandate deposition of data on these traits, as well as a bottom-up approach to entice and facilitate researchers to deposit their data.
The project output is a web site (https://sharetrait.org/) where traits can be deposited.
