Description
The emerging multidisciplinary field of earth system science sets out to improve our understanding functioning ecosystems, at a global
level across the entire planet. Stable Isotopes and Biosphere - Atmosphere Interactions looks to one of its most powerful
tools – the application of stable isotope analyses – to understanding biosphere-atmosphere exchange of the greenhouse gases, and synthesizes
much of the recent progress in this work.
Stable Isotopes and Biosphere - Atmosphere Interactions describes recent
progress in understanding the mechanisms, processes and applications of new techniques. It makes a significant contribution to the emerging,
multidisciplinary study of the Earth as an interacting system. This book will be an important reference for students and researchers
in biology, ecology, biogeochemistry, meteorology, and atmospheric science and will be invaluable for anyone with any interest in the
future of the planet.
Audience
Plant physiologists, ecosystem ecologists, micrometeorologists, atmospheric scientists
