Description
This 33-chapter volume presents a critical examination of the importance of stable isotopes in understanding key plant metabolic processes.Carbon isotope analyses for estimates of plant water use and metabolismIntegrated estimates of stress impacts and life history in ecological systemsHydrogen and oxygen isotope analyses for evaluating water sources and transpirationUse of stable isotopes in scaling from leaf to global levelsSections include: History and Theoretical Considerations, Ecological Aspects of Carbon Isotope Variation, Agricultural Aspects of Carbon Isotope Variation, Genetics and Isotopic Variation, Water Relations and Isotopic Composition
