Climate Variability and the Global Harvest - Impacts of El Nino and Other Oscillations on Agroecosystems

Zusatztext For a clear description of climate variability and for those interested in prediction of crop yield, it is a useful publication at a modest price. Klappentext Rosenzweig provides coverage of the interactions between the major climate oscillations, climate change, and agriculture. He describes climate system processes, effects of the major oscillations on natural and agro-systems, the development of seasonal climate predictions, and the relation of climate variability to society and development.
