Geosphere-biosphere interactions and climate [E-Book] / edited by Lennart O. Bengtsson, Claus U. Hammer.
Geosphere-Biosphere Interactions and Climate brings together many of the world's leading environmental scientists to discuss the interaction between the geosphere/biosphere and climate. The volume was first published in 2002 and arises from a working group of the prestigious Pontifical Academy...
