  • Adaptation and Evolution in Marine Environments, Volume 1

    The Impacts of Global Change on Biodiversity

    Edited by Guido di Prisco, Cinzia Verde ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The poles undergo climate changes exceeding those in the rest of the world in terms of their speed and extent, and have a key role in modulating the climate of the Earth. Ecosystems adapted to polar environments are likely to become vulnerable to climate changes. Their responses allow us to analyse and foresee the impact of changes at lower latitudes. We need to increase our knowledge of the polar ... Read more
