The impact of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases on forest ecosystems

Carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases such as ozone, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and chlorofluorocarbons, are all increasing in the atmosphere.

These gases are directly affecting biological processes in trees and ecological processes in forests.

This book provides a review, written by international forest scientists, of what is known about the impact of elevated CO2 and other greenhouse gases, on forest ecosystems.
