Overview"With the growing awareness of the far reaching adverse effects of human economic activity on the biosphere, the methods used to investigate these effects on key plant species are crucial. This book supplies vital information on such methods. The Integrated Screening Programme (ISP) developed by the team of scientists at Sheffield University's Unit of Comparative Plant Ecology has given rise to the classic books ""Comparative Plant Ecology"" and ""The Abridged Comparative Plant Ecology"" (now published by Chapman & Hall). This book is a sister publication outlining the methods used by the ISP. Topics covered include: fundamental processes of photosynthesis, respiration, nitrogen and phosphorus metabolism; physiology of water relations; carbon allocation; responses to mineral depletion; day length changes; and chill/freezing, heat stress and other environmental stresses."
