This book delivers current state-of-the-science knowledge of tree ecophysiology, with particular emphasis on adaptation to a novel future physical and chemical environment. Unlike the focus of most books on the topic, this considers air chemistry changes (O3, NOx, and N deposition) in addition to elevated CO2 effects and its secondary effects of elevated temperature. The authors have addressed two systems essential for plant life: water handling capacity from the perspective of water transport; the coupling of xylem and phloem water potential and flow; water and nutrition uptake via likely changes in mycorrhizal relationships; control of water loss via stomata and ...

Reviews for Trees in a Changing Environment
“This volume, edited by Tausz (Univ. of Melbourne, Australia) and Grulke (USDA Forest Service), brings together a collection of 11 papers that address the physiological responses of trees to environmental change, and the ecological implications of those responses. … Each chapter is well referenced to the primary literature. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students and researchers/faculty.” (A. Richardson, Choice, Vol. 52 ... Read more
