Functional roles of biodiversity : a global perspective
Harold A Mooney, International Council of Scientific Unions. Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment., United Nations Environment Programme., et al
Biodiversity refers to the three attributes of living environments: the variety of distinct ecosystems they contain; the number of species within them; and the range of genetic diversity within the populations of each of these species. This book presents a synthesis of ideas emerging from 15 biome-specific workshops exploring our current knowledge of the effects of biodiversity on ecosystem processes. The contributions offer an assessment of the consequences of human activities at the ecosystem level and provide an appropriate framework for making future policy decisions
