Vegetation response to climate change: a functional traits-based approach
- Abstract:
-
Climate change influences all aspects of plant biology. The responses of vegetation to climate changes (particularly water availability in the world’s drylands) constitute a critical and timely research agenda, with potentially significant ecological consequences. This doctoral thesis aimed to investigate vegetation response to climate change using a plant functional traits-based approach, with a specific focus on root traits in Southern Africa by undertaking three interlinked research obj...
