TAILIEUCHUNG - Ecosystem Function in Heterogeneous Landscapes

Foreword for Cary Conference X, “Ecosystem Function in Heterogeneous Landscapes.” Among the most difficult problems in the life sciences is the challenge to understand the details of how ecosystems/watersheds/landscapes function. Yet, the welfare of all life, not just the human species, depends upon the successful functioning of diverse and complicated ecosystems, each with various dimensions and compositions. Central to this “working” is the dominance, and to a major extent control, of ecosystems by organisms, which means that these systems are constantly changing as the component organisms change and evolve. Such changes increase the challenge to understand the functioning of ecosystems and landscapes | Ecosystem Function in Heterogeneous Landscapes Gary M. Lovett Clive G. Jones Editors Monica G.
