Description
Climate Change Biology is a comprehensive textbook that addresses the critical issue of how climate change affects life on Earth. The book presents three parts, starting with an examination of the physical evidence and modelling efforts to predict future changes, followed by discussions of biological responses at various scales, from individual organisms to ecosystems and human populations. The final section explores the impact of climate change on natural resources, particularly those related to human livelihoods. This volume will be a valuable resource for courses on the impacts of climate change, as well as providing a concise overview for researchers new to the field. With 288 pages in paperback format, Climate Change Biology offers a detailed understanding of this pressing global issue.
