Springer Trees in a Changing Environment - Plant Ecophysiology 9

Explore the latest scientific advancements in tree ecophysiology with this comprehensive volume from Springer. This book provides essential knowledge on how trees adapt to a changing physical and chemical environment. While many texts focus solely on CO2, this work expands the scope to include the impacts of air chemistry changes such as O3, NOx, and N deposition, alongside elevated temperature effects. Readers will gain a deep understanding of two essential systems for plant life: water handling capacity regarding water transport, and the coupling of xylem and phloem water potential and flow. The text also examines the mechanisms of water and nutrition uptake. This resource is designed for those seeking a modern perspective on how forest ecosystems respond to shifting global conditions, making it a vital addition to your scientific library.
