Understanding Community And Ecophysiology Of Plant Species On The Colorado Plateau, Hannah Elizabeth Yokum Dec 2017

Understanding Community And Ecophysiology Of Plant Species On The Colorado Plateau, Hannah Elizabeth Yokum

Theses and Dissertations

The intensification of aridity due to anthropogenic climate change is likely to have a large impact on the growth and survival of plant species in the southwestern U.S. where species are already vulnerable to high temperatures and limited precipitation. Global climate change impacts plants through a rising temperature effect, CO2 effect, and land management. In order to forecast the impacts of global climate change, it is necessary to know the current conditions and create a baseline for future comparisons and to understand the factors and players that will affect what happens in the future. The objective of Chapter 1 is …
