" For the purposes of this book, we interpret the definition of global change broadly to include physical and chemical environmental changes that are likely to affect the productivity and health of forest ecosystems over the long term. Important environmental changes in the Northern United States include steadily increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide, tropospheric ozone, wet and dry deposition of nitrogen and sulfur compounds, acidic precipitation and clouds, and climate variability. These environmental factors interact in complex ways to affect plant physiological functions and soil processes in the context of forest landscapes derived from centuries of intensive land use and natural disturbances. Research in the North has begun to unravel some key questions about how environmental changes will impact the productivity and health of forest ecosystems, species distributions and abundance, | 出版日期 | Book 2000 | 关键词 | Oxide; Scale; atmosphere; atmospheric science; climate change; ecology; ecosystem; environment; environmenta | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4612-1256-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4612-7064-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4612-1256-0Series ISSN 0070-8356 Series E-ISSN 2196-971X | issn_series | 0070-8356 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 2000 |
