Terrestrial Biomes: Global Biome Conservation and Global Warming Impacts on Ecology and Biodiversity explores the effects of anthropogenic activities on Earth’s terrestrial biomes, species, and climate. The book summarizes operational and potential monitoring tools to conserve or recover terrestrial biomes at a global scale. Written by international experts in ecology and biodiversity conservation, this book identifies the challenges and threats to terrestrial organisms and connects them to real cases of conservation.

Terrestrial Biomes: Global Biome Conservation and Global Warming Impacts on Ecology and Biodiversity explores the effects of anthropogenic activities on Earth’s terrestrial biomes, species, and climate. The book summarizes operational and potential monitoring tools to conserve or recover terrestrial biomes at a global scale. Written by international experts in ecology and biodiversity conservation, this book identifies the challenges and threats to terrestrial organisms and connects them to real cases of conservation. This is an important resource for students, professors, researchers, and governmental and non-governmental organizations active in biodiversity conservation and climate change mitigation.
