Reseña del editor

The new series, Advances in Bioclimatology provides authorative reviews on the latest developments in all research areas concerned with the effects of climatic factors on living organisms - be they plants, animals or humans. The emphasis is clearly laid on the mechanisms - rather than on the statistical relationships - linking biological processes with their physical environments. The following topics are covered in the first volume: - Deforestation, revegetation, water balance and climate; - Interaction of CO2 with growth limiting environmental factors in vegetation productivity; - Radiative transfer in nonhomogenous plant canopies; - Techniques to measure CO2 flux densities from surface and airborne sensors. Future volumes will include reviews of frost, its occurrence, impact and prevention (Vol. 2); laser remote sensing of vegetation; global monitoring of forests with radar; human melanoma and ultraviolet radiation; maintaining health of farm animals under adverse conditions.
