Main publication details
MARC recordClimatic treelines: conventions, global patterns, causes / Christian Körner.
| Title: | Climatic treelines: conventions, global patterns, causes / Christian Körner. |
| Author(s): | Körner, Christian. |
| Date: | 2007. |
| In: | Erdkunde. (2007.), Vol. 61(4) (2007) |
| Abstract: | Discusses high altitude treeline phenomenon with global perspective. Notes that high elevation treeline is found at surprisingly uniform growing season temperatures world-wide, while other types of thresholds (including warmest month temperature) do not work on global scale. Phenomenon is explained by close aerodynamic coupling between tree crowns and atmospheric conditions. |
