Description

Explore the complex dynamics of the alpine treeline ecotone (ATE) with this scientific study from Elsevier. This volume examines the transition zone high on mountains where closed canopy forests meet open alpine tundra and rocky landscapes. Using Glacier National Park in Montana as a primary example, the text investigates how these island biomes respond to environmental shifts. Researchers look at the upward advance of the treeline and what happens when trees invade the tundra. This study approaches the subject from a plant's-eye-view, analyzing how local conditions influence the movement of species. It provides a detailed look at the consequences of tree invasion for the tundra biome, much like how island flora and fauna react to new arrivals. This book is a significant addition to the Developments in Earth Surface Processes series, offering specialized knowledge for those studying botany, ecology, and mountain ecosystems.

Key Features

Focuses on the alpine treeline ecotone (ATE) and the transition between forests and alpine tundra.

Uses Glacier National Park, MT, USA as a primary case study for observing environmental changes.

Analyzes the upward advance of the treeline and its impact on the tundra biome.

Provides a unique plant's-eye-view to examine how local conditions affect ecosystem invasibility.

Part of the Developments in Earth Surface Processes series, Volume 12, from Elsevier Science.
