Mountain Timberlines

More about the book

Engaging in over four decades of timberline research, the author reflects on the complexities of documenting this diverse ecological phenomenon. Encouraged by the late Prof. Heinz Ellenberg, the book aims to provide a comprehensive view of timberline's physiognomic and structural variety, drawing from the author's field experiences in regions like the Alps and North America. Originally published in German, this English edition expands its reach, integrating personal observations and collaborative research to enrich the understanding of timberline ecology.
