Responses of terrestrial Antarctic ecosystems to climate change; Vascular plant responses to elevated CO2 in a temperate lowland Sphagnum peatland; Moss responses to elevated CO2 and variation in hydrology in a temperate lowland peatland; From transient to steady-state response of ecosystems to atmospheric CO2-enrichment and global climate change: conceptual challenges and need for an integrated approach; Plant performance in a warmer world: general responses of plants from cold, northern biomes and the importance of winter and spring events
Summary
Focuses on how climate affects or affected the biosphere and vice versa both in the present and past. This book features papers that highlight plant responses to atmospheric CO2 increase, to global warming and to increased ultraviolet-B radiation as a result of stratospheric ozone depletion
