Summary

This book presents a comprehensive synthesis of current knowledge on all aspects of Antarctic ecosystems. It also examines direct human impacts on Antarctic species and the ecosystems they live in and our efforts to manage these pressures. A full understanding of ecosystem-level processes can only be obtained through science that integrates across scales of all aspects of biological organisation (hence "from genes to ecosystems"). This is especially true in the case of climate change, where the effects are pervasive on all levels of biological organisation. Key Features: " Published in association with the Royal Society " Integrates studies across scales of organization and complexity " Summarizes knowledge of Antarctic ecology from gene to ecosystem levels " Written by an international team of world-renowned experts on Antarctic ecology
