An increase in atmospheric CO.2. concentration willseverely affect ecosystem function in this area. This volume presentsa review of terrestrial ecosystems in monsoon Asia and assessespossible effects of global change on the structure and function offorest ecosystems and feedback routes to the global carbon cycle...Audience:. Vital reading for plant ecologists, vegetationscientists, environmental managers and government decision makers.. |
