Produktinformationen zu „Physicochemical and Environmental Plant Physiology (PDF)“
The new edition of Physicochemical and Environmental Plant Physiology uses elementary chemistry, physics, and mathematics to explain and develop key concepts in plant physiology. In fundamental ways, all physiological processes that occur in cells, tissues, organs, and organisms obey such relations. Topics include diffusion, membranes, water relations, ion transport, photochemistry, bioenergetics of energy conversion, photosynthesis, environmental influences on plant temperature, and gas exchange for leaves and whole plants. This new edition maintains the unparalleled commitment to clear presentation and improves upon the user friendliness of the previous versions.

Autoren-Porträt von Park S. Nobel
Park S. Nobel is the Distinguished Professor of Biology Emeritus in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of California, Los Angeles. His early career focused on cell physiology, especially chloroplasts, and his first book was entitled Plant Cell Physiology: A Physicochemical Approach (W.H. Freeman, 1970).He eventually shifted toward plant physiological ecology and has written six books on the subject that have been cited extensively. Besides writing these texts, he has published six books on agaves and cacti. He has also authored nearly 400 scientific research articles and reviews.
Dr. Nobel has developed original equations for the air boundary layers surrounding cylinders and spheres and has championed the importance of the mesophyll surface area per unit leaf area, Ames/A. Other research topics have included the importance of shallow root distribution for taking advantage of light desert rainfalls and the influences of an air gap developing around roots during drought on root-soil water movement.

Pressezitat
“This edition represents the penultimate integration of the quantitative sciences within the field of plant physiology - William K. Smith, Wake Forest University"This volume...covers a number of principles in physics and physical chemistry relevant to the interaction of plants with their environment." - John A. Raven FRS FRSE, Boyd Baxter Professor of Biology, University of Dundee
“This book is an important starting point for anyone concerned with the response of plants to their physical environment. - Harold Mooney, Stanford University
"The many small changes have improved the book without altering its essential rigor and scholarly appeal." - Gretchen North, Occidental College
"This thoroughly updated third edition can help both undergraduate and graduate students gain a solid foundation in plant physiology." - Eulogio Pimienta-Barrios, Universidad de Guadalajara, Mèxico
"I have used and recommended this text since it beginnings...." - Roger M. Spanswick, Cornell University
"If anyone is capable of helping readers develop this understanding, it is Park Nobel." - ECOLOGY, praise for the last edition
