Tropical Forests and Climate

Beschreibung

Tropical forests affect climate, and the removal of the forests will change climate. Or not?
This book discusses basic questions on how far, if at all, tropical deforestation leads to climatic change. The question of this uncertainty is particularly addressed. One important consequence of the uncertainties of whether deforestation affects climate is how scientific findings best illuminate the policy-making process.
