尽管生态数据的可用性呈指数级增长，但数据集之间需要更广泛的互操作性来释放开放获取的潜力。我们对人口学和功能特征的接口的理解很好地从这种互操作性中受益。在这里，我们介绍MOSAIC，这是一个开放获取的特征数据库，可以解锁存储在COMADRE， COMPADRE和PADRINO开放获取数据库中的人口统计潜力。MOSAIC数据通过现有数据集和来自主要文献的新性状记录的组合进行数字化和整理。MOSAIC （v. 1.0.0）包含了300种动植物的14个性状领域：生物量、高度、生长决定、再生、两性二态性、交配系统、雌雄同体、顺序雌雄同体、扩散能力、扩散类型、扩散模式、扩散类别、挥发性和水生栖息地依赖性。MOSAIC包括1359个物种的种级系统发育和特定种群的气候数据。我们确定了数据库集成如何能够提高我们对现有存储库中量化良好的特征和那些量化不佳的特征（例如，增长决定，模块化）的理解。MOSAIC突出了与标准化数据库和人口统计措施有关的新挑战。
Despite exponential growth in ecological data availability, broader interoperability amongst datasets is needed to unlock the potential of open access. Our understanding of the interface of demography and functional traits is well-positioned to benefit from such interoperability. Here, we introduce MOSAIC, an open-access trait database that unlocks the demographic potential stored in the COMADRE, COMPADRE, and PADRINO open-access databases. MOSAIC data were digitised and curated through a combination of existing datasets and new trait records sourced from primary literature. In its first release, MOSAIC (v. 1.0.0) includes 14 trait fields for 300 animal and plant species: biomass, height, growth determination, regeneration, sexual dimorphism, mating system, hermaphrodism, sequential hermaphrodism, dispersal capacity, type of dispersal, mode of dispersal, dispersal classes, volancy, and aquatic habitat dependency. MOSAIC includes species-level phylogenies for 1,359 species and population-specific climate data. We identify how database integration can improve our understanding of traits well-quantified in existing repositories and those that are poorly quantified (e.g., growth determination, modularity). MOSAIC highlights emerging challenges associated with standardising databases and demographic measures.
