Ecology and Biogeography of Mediterranean Ecosystems in Chile, California, and Australia e-bog

Comparison of mediterranean-type climate ecosystems in different parts of the world has not only permitted a strong test for ecological convergence, but also critical understanding of key ecophysiological and population processes.
