Full Description
Wetlands are vital ecosystems worldwide, possessing unique and irreplaceable natural resources and ecological functions. Unlike other terrestrial ecosystems, wetlands are more directly connected to and influenced by climate change. They help mitigate global warming by serving as CO2 sinks and organic carbon reservoirs, but they also contribute to warming by emitting CH4. Wetlands in a Climate-Changing World aims to clarify the understanding of natural wetland structures, processes, and functions in the context of a changing climate, drawing on real-life case studies to help the reader comprehend current knowledge related to wetland research under the background of climate change.
