Mountain Biodiversity: A Global Assessment de Ch. Korner

Mountain Biodiversity: A Global Assessment: Routledge Library Editions: Ecology

Editat de Ch. Korner, E.M. Spehn
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 dec 2021
Originally published in 2002, Mountain Biodiversity deals with the biological richness, function and change of mountain environments. The book was birthed from the first global conference on mountain biodiversity and was a contribution to the International Year of Mountains in 2002. The book examines biological diversity as essential for the integrity of mountain ecosystems and argues that this dependency is likely to increase as environmental climates and social conditions change. This book seeks to examine the biological riches of all major mountain ranges, from around the world and using existing knowledge on mountain biodiversity, examines a broad range of research in diversity, including that of plants, animals, human and bacterial diversity. The book also examines climate change and mountain biodiversity as well as land use and conservation.

Descriere

Originally published in 2002, Mountain Biodiversity deals with the biological richness, function and change of mountain environments and examines biological diversity as essential for the integrity of mountain ecosystems. It argues that this dependency is likely to increase as environmental climates and social conditions change.
