Nach einer kurzen Einführung in das Klimasystem und der Erläuterung grundlegender Begriffe werden die physikalischen Grundlagen des atmosphärischen Energie- und Wasserhaushaltes ausführlich behandelt. Der Entstehung von Wind und einem Abriss zur atmosphärischen Zirkulation sind weitere Kapitel gewidmet. Im regionalen Teil werden Witterung und Klima wesentlicher Gebiete der Erde in Abhängigkeit von der atmosphärischen Zirkulation und den relevanten Klimafaktoren aufgearbeitet. Fragen der Klassifikation von Klimaten nach genetischen und effektiven Kriterien schließen sich an....

A fascinating work that provides a wealth of information on one of the world's most biodiverse ecosystems. This is the result of investigations by almost 30 groups of researchers from various disciplines. They performed ecosystem analyses following two gradients: an altitudinal gradient and a gradient of land use intensity and ecosystem regeneration following human use. Based on these analyses, this volume discusses these findings in a huge variety of subject areas.

An interdisciplinary research unit consisting of 30 teams in the natural, economic and social sciences analyzed biodiversity and ecosystem services of a mountain rainforest ecosystem in the hotspot of the tropical Andes, with special reference to past, current and future environmental changes. The group assessed ecosystem services using data from ecological field and scenario-driven model experiments, and with the help of comparative field surveys of the natural forest and its anthropogenic replacement system for agriculture.
The book offers insights into the impacts of...
