  • Trees in a Changing Environment

    Ecophysiology, Adaptation, and Future Survival

    Edited by Michael Tausz, Nancy Grulke ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book delivers current state-of-the-science knowledge of tree ecophysiology, with particular emphasis on adaptation to a novel future physical and chemical environment. Unlike the focus of most books on the topic, this considers air chemistry changes (O3, NOx, and N deposition) in addition to elevated CO2 effects and its secondary effects of elevated temperature. The authors have addressed two ... Read more

  • The Emerald Planet

    How plants changed Earth's history

    by David Beerling ...
    Series series Oxford Landmark Science
    Plants have profoundly moulded the Earth's climate and the evolutionary trajectory of life. Far from being 'silent witnesses to the passage of time', plants are dynamic components of our world, shaping the environment throughout history as much as that environment has shaped them. In The Emerald Planet, David Beerling puts plants centre stage, revealing the crucial role they have played in driving ... Read more

  • Dispersal Ecology and Evolution

    Edited by Jean Clobert, Michel Baguette, Tim G. Benton, James M. Bullock ...
    Now that so many ecosystems face rapid and major environmental change, the ability of species to respond to these changes by dispersing or moving between different patches of habitat can be crucial to ensuring their survival. Understanding dispersal has become key to understanding how populations may persist. Dispersal Ecology and Evolution provides a timely and wide-ranging overview of the fast ... Read more

  • The Far North:

    Plant Biodiversity and Ecology of Yakutia

    Edited by Elena I. Troeva, A. P. Isaev, M.M. Cherosov, N. S. Karpov ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Outside Russia very little is known about the terrestrial ecology, vegetation, biogeographical patterns, and biodiversity of the enormously extensive ecosystems of Yakutia, Siberia. These systems are very special in that they function on top of huge layers of permafrost and are exposed to very severe and extreme weather conditions, the range between winter and summer temperatures being more than ...

  • Tree Pollination Under Global Climate Change

    by Fernando Ramírez, Jose Kallarackal ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This brief reviews the pollination aspects of both wild and domesticated fruit tree species in a global climate change context. It explores cross-pollination mediated by insects, vertebrates and abiotic factors, self-pollination and their global warming implications. The authors identify the link between abiotic factors such as precipitation and severe droughts in the context of tree pollination ... Read more

  • CO2, Temperature, and Trees

    Experimental Approaches

    by Dieter Overdieck ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This comprehensive book discusses the ecophysiological features of trees affected by the two most prominent factors of climate change: atmospheric CO2 concentration and temperature. It starts with the introduction of experimental methods at the leaf, branch, the whole-tree, and tree group scales, and in the following chapters elaborates on specific topics including photosynthesis of leaves, ...

  • Functioning and Management of European Beech Ecosystems

    Edited by Rainer Brumme, Partap K. Khanna ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Temperate forests cover large areas of Europe and perform a number of important functions such as the regulation of energy and matter, production of wood and other resources, and conservation of biodiversity and habitats; they also have special signi?cance in social and cultural contexts. Initiated in 1960s, the ?rst International Biological Program (IBP) focused on ‘‘the biological basis of ... Read more

  • Responses of Fruit Trees to Global Climate Change

    by Fernando Ramirez, Jose Kallarackal ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Global climate change is expected to produce increased carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere, higher temperatures, aberrant precipitation patterns and a host of other climatic changes that would affect all life on this planet. This review article addresses the impact of climate change on fruit trees and the response of the trees to a changing environment. The response of fruit trees to ... Read more
