Framework for Linking Climate, Resource Inventories, and Ecosystem Monitorng
ISBN: 9781492154822 / Angielski / Miękka / 52 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Climate exerts strong controls over almost all physical and ecological processes. In particular climate regulates ecosystem fluxes of energy and matter as well as the geomorphic and biogeochemical processes underlying the distribution and structure of ecosystems (Jacobson et al., 1997; Schlesinger, 1997; Bonan, 2002). Climate also regulates the frequency and intensity of disturbances (Swetnam and Betancourt 1998), and paces the rate at which species can invade a given area (Lyford et al. 2003, Gray et al. 2006). Ecologists and ecosystem managers must in turn possess a working knowledge of...

The cumulative effects of past and present climates, in concert with geologic factors (such as soil type) and processes (such as fire), largely determine current hydrology and species distribution patterns in the Sierra Nevada. Accelerated climatic change related to anthropogenic influences is expected to result in significant ecosystem effects in western montane systems, including reduced snowpack, altered fire regimes, and modified species vulnerability (CIRMOUNT Committee 2006). In the Sierra Nevada, atmospheric warming is resulting in...
