From the Back Cover
This volume begins by setting out the magnitude of the task facing entomologists involved in unravelling the complex interactions affected by environmental change. Subsequent chapters consider (i) aspects of climate change with respect to insects from an agricultural and medical perspective, (ii) how increased levels of gases, heavy metals and other pollutants may affect the success of insects and their relationships with plants, and (iii) the effects of changing land use patterns in temperate and tropical regions on insect abundance, diversity and probability of extinction.
It is clear that much needs to be done in order to understand the interactions between different aspects of the environment and insects, their food sources, enemies and competitors in sufficient detail to be able to predict the effects of environmental changes. This volume will form a significant section of the backdrop against which progress can be made, and will be of interest to all those concerned with the impact of environmental changes on insects.
