Plants at the margin: ecological limits and climate change / R.M.M. Crawford.
Title: | Plants at the margin: ecological limits and climate change / R.M.M. Crawford. |
Author(s): | Crawford, R. M. M. |
Date: | 2008. |
Publisher: | Cambridge: Cambridge University Press |
Abstract: | Examines likely effects of climate change on plants at limits of their distribution, and ability of plant species adapted for life in inherently environmentally unstable areas to withstand changes that may be brought about by global warming. Includes case studies of Arctic and sub-Arctic treelines and tundra-taiga interface; plant survival in warmer Arctic; and many references to plants at Antarctic margins. |
