Climate and Land-Use Controls on Ecosystem Functioning: Challenges and Insights from the South

If the unifying forces of climate have been a key determinant of the striking structural and functional similarities displayed by temperate ecosystems on both sides of the equator (Mooney 1977, Paruelo et al. 1998, Jobbagy & Jackson 2000), the divergent forces of history have created strong contrasts between these ecosystems—which are manifested today as diff erent arrays of global change eff ects in the developed north vs the developing south.
