Air pollution, global change and forests in the new millennium [electronic resource] / edited by D.F. Karnosky [and others]

The chapters in this book present a snapshot of the state of knowledge of air pollution effects at the beginning of the 21st century. From their different disciplines, a distinguished collection of authors document their understanding of how leaves, trees, and forests respond to air pollutants and c...
