Conclusions; Literature CitedPart II Atmospheric CompositionThis book is the first in a series of assessments of regional climate change. Irreversible changes to regional biogeochemistry, and terrestrial and marine ecosystem functioning are brought about by increases in population, intensified land use, urbanization, industrialization and economic development. These may have global as well as regional consequences. The objectives of the assessments are, (i) to better understand how human activities in regions are altering regional atmospheric, terrestrial, and marine environments, (ii) to provide a sound scientific basis for sustainable regional develoMonsoon Asia integrated regional study on global change ;v. 1.MonsoonsEast AsiaClimatic changesEast AsiaMonsoonsClimatic changes551.695Fu Congbin1655622Freney J.
