Fluxes of Carbon, Water and Energy of European Forests edited by Riccardo Valentini.

After years of technological development and its important achievements to make our life easier and more comfortable, human society is going to face one of the most difficult challenges of the last century: to stabilize the concentra­ tion levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere to prevent harm...
