  • Handbook of Climate Change and Agroecosystemsby Daniel Hillel; Cynthia Rosenzweig

    World Scientific Publishing Company 2012; US$ 153.00

    Climate change is no longer merely projected to occur in the indeterminate future. It has already begun to be manifested in the weather regimes affecting agroecosystems, food production, and rural livelihoods in many regions around the world. It is a real and growing challenge to the world at large and in particular to the scientific community, which... more...

  • Tropical Forests and Global Atmospheric Changeby Yadvinder Malhi; Oliver Phillips

    OUP Oxford 2005; US$ 84.99

    Tropical forests represent the world's most biodiverse ecosystems and play a key role in hydrology, carbon storage and exchange. Many of the human-induced pressures these regions are facing, e.g. fragmentation and deforestation, have been widely reported and well documented. However, there have been surprisingly few efforts to synthesize cutting-edge... more...

  • Plant Growth and Climate Changeby James I. L. Morison; Michael D. Morecroft

    Wiley 2008; US$ 289.95

    Evidence grows daily of the changing climate and its impact on plants and animals. Plant function is inextricably linked to climate and atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration. On the shortest and smallest scales, the climate affects the plant’s immediate environment and so directly influences physiological processes. At larger scales, the climate... more...
