US$ 129.95 (+ tax)
Land use change is the most important of all global change impacts on mountain biodiversity, and has the greatest impact on their ecosystem integrity and biological richness. Land Use Change and Mountain Biodiversity focuses on the interplay between disturbances in mountains, primarily anthropogenic in origin, and the mountain biota that determine responses to this disturbance. At the core of this issue is how species and landscape diversity buffers the anthropogenic impacts. Based on the applied research across the globe, this book takes a natural systems approach to understanding the links between biodiversity and ecosystem resistance/resilience. Many of the themes also have ecological applications beyond mountainous regions.
