"Biodiversity And Climate Change, A Risk Analysis" (BACCARA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
"1. The effect of climate change on forest biodiversity will be evaluated through better understanding of the ecological processes that shape species composition and are particularly sensitive to climate conditions. Forest species composition will correspond to the assemblage of tree species and both symbiotic and antagonistic species that can drive tree species composition. Climate conditions wil ...
