The Terrestrial Biosphere and Global Change: Implications for Natural and Managed Ecosystems: International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme Book Series, cartea 4

Editat de Brian Walker, Will Steffen, Josep Canadell, John Ingram
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 mar 1999
This 1999 synthesis summarises the international research effort in the Global Change and Terrestrial Ecosystems (GCTE) Core Project of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme. Five major thematic areas are covered: ecosystem physiology; ecosystem structure and composition; terrestrial production systems; global biogeochemistry; ecological complexity (biodiversity). A summary of the integrated and interactive effects of global change on the terrestrial biosphere for four key regions of the world is presented, as well as a projection of future trends in the terrestrial component of the global carbon cycle. The book also includes a section on tools developed or modified for global change research.

Recenzii

'Well worth a place in the library.' Bulletin of the British Ecological Society
' … an excellent book, presenting deep information about the global change and its impact on the terrestrial biosphere in a very integral way … I can highly recommend it as an example of a modern approach to organisation of international scientific effort in solving global problems … Everyone, who wants to become acquainted with the current state of knowledge and with new findings concerning problems described above will be highly satisfied.' Acta Physiologiae Plantarum
