Patterns of species richness across tropical environmental gradients:
consequences for global climate change.
My thesis provides a
case study, using tropical floristic data, which addresses two broad questions:
1) Are there discernable patterns
in species diversity in relation to environmental gradients, and if so, what is
the nature
of such patterns? 2)
How will species respond to global climate change and the current and future
predicted
increases
in temperature and
decreases in rainfall?
In addition there are some smaller experiments that developed asexual
propagation methodology and
undergraduate student
projects such as the AMF acquisition in cuttings vs adults project.
