Temperate Broad-Leaved Evergreen Forests

Compared with other kinds of forests, we know little of the synecology of evergreen broad-leaved forests nor of the autecology of individual species. This volume comprises contributions covering South America, New Zealand, Australia, southeastern North America, the Mediterranean and the Middle East, India, parts of Africa, and Japan. Each chapter considers aspects such as the characteristics, functional processes, past, present and potential uses, management, economic and conservation status of these forests.
