Book

Description

This book systematically explores climate limits and climate change impacts on plant distribution, especially in China. It involves not only the establishment work flow of related methods such as climatically suitable habitat mapping, limiting climatic factor mapping, climatic niche dynamics assessment, multi-components vulnerability assessment, range shift velocity estimation in three geographical dimensions, but also discusses how climate controls the geographical distribution of plants in China? How specie climatic niche dynamics during afforestation around the world? How does climate change affect the multi-components vulnerability of plants? How does climate change affect the local species extinction risk, species turnover rate and species gain rate and species loss rate of plants in China? How climate change affects species range shift velocity (direction and speed) in China?
