Overview on current and past global changes in the Mediterranean ecosystems
Atmospheric increases in CO, and other greenhouse gases are the basis of Global Change. The effects on ecosystems are not yet well known. Effects on Mediterranean ecosystems are even less known. Some of the current knowledge on direct and indirect (through climate changes) effects on Mediterranean e...

| Sumario: | Atmospheric increases in CO, and other greenhouse gases are the basis of Global Change. The effects on ecosystems are not yet well known. Effects on Mediterranean ecosystems are even less known. Some of the current knowledge on direct and indirect (through climate changes) effects on Mediterranean ecosystems is presented. Recent data from historical plant material are highlighted to discuss the biological changes already produced after several decades of Global Change. |
