East Asia, with its large, fast-growing population and rapid
industrialization, is an important area for global environmental
problems, both in terms of the generation of greenhouse gases and
the effects of any change in crop yields. The probable climate
changes caused by increased concentrations of greenhouse gases and
the modeling of plant production, vegetation distribution,
phenological events, and lake ecosystems are discussed in this
book. Besides providing an overview and synthesis of recent
research, this volume shows the importance of analyzing local field
data on microclimates, soil environments, the extent of snow cover,
and the productivity of mountain vegetation. The possible effects
of increasing concentrations of carbon dioxide and rising
temperatures on rice yield are shown from controlled environment
experiments. This book will be particularly valuable to researchers
and students in the fields of ecology, crop science, forestry, and
environmental sciences as well as being of interest to anyone
concerned with global environmental problems.
