Description

From the Introduction (p.347) ... 'It is important to remember that except over very small spatial and temporal scales, it is impossible to directly measure the carbon present in a specific region of the boreal forest as well as that being exchanged with the atmosphere. In almost all cases, these values are estimated through the use of models.' © 2000 Springer-Verlag New York, Inc.
