  abstract = {{U}nderstanding the capacity of forests to adapt to climate change is of pivotal importance for conservation science, yet this is still widely unknown. {T}his knowledge gap is particularly acute in high-biodiversity tropical forests. {H}ere, we examined how tropical forests of the {A}mericas have shifted community trait composition in recent decades as a response to changes in climate. {B}ased on historical trait-climate relationships, we found that, overall, the studied functional traits show shifts of less than 8% of what would be expected given the observed changes in climate. {H}owever, the recruit assemblage shows shifts of 21% relative to climate change expectation. {T}he most diverse forests on {E}arth are changing in functional trait composition but at a rate that is fundamentally insufficient to track climate change.},
