  • MANUFACTURING THE EMPLOYEE
    ROY JACQUES
    Contemporary thinking about management is still frequently presented as a set of universal, eternal verities. In this fascinating book Roy Jacques presents a discursive history of industrial work relationships in the United States which powerfully demonstrates that they are not. A central concern is to show that current `common-sense′ in management forms an historically and cul...

  • EXPLOITATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL HETEROGENEITY BY PLANTS: ECOPHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESSES ABOVE- AND BELOWGROUND
    ROY, JACQUES
    There is a new emerging interest in the effects of gaps and patches on succession and biodiversity. This innovative volume is a synthesis of studies of plant responses to temporal and spatial heterogeneity, the exploitation of resources from pulses and patches by plants, and their competition with neighbors in the face of this variability.Aboveground, the book focuses upon the ...

  • TRACE GAS EMISSIONS BY PLANTS
    ROY, JACQUES
    Many trace gases are exchanged between the atmosphere and the biosphere. Although much research has been published on the photosynthetic exchanges of carbon dioxide, oxygen, and water vapor, this book focuses on the importance of biogenic trace gases on atmosphere chemistry and ecosystem stability. Included are methane and its effect on the radiative properties of the atmospher...

  • SCALING PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESSES: LEAF TO GLOBE
    ROY, JACQUES
    Traditional plant physiological ecology is organism centered and provides a useful framework for understanding the interactions between plants and their environment and for identifying characteristics likely to result in plant success in a particular habitat. This book focuses on extending concepts from plant physiological ecology as a basis for understanding carbon, energy, an...

  • TERRESTRIAL GLOBAL PRODUCTIVITY
    ROY, JACQUES / MOONEY, HAROLD A. / SAUGIER, BERNARD
    As the global climate changes, there are concomitant changes in global biological productivity. This book is devoted to the assessment of terrestrial Net Primary Productivity ("the total amount of energy acquired by green plants during photosynthesis, minus the energy lost through respiration"--APDS&T, pp. 1457). The book is comprised of three major sections. The first section ...

  • CARBON DIOXIDE AND TERRESTRIAL ECOSYSTEMS
    KOCH, GEORGE W. / ROY, JACQUES
    The importance of carbon dioxide extends from cellular to global levels of organization and potential ecological deterioration may be the result of increased CO2 in our atmosphere. Recently, the research emphasis shifted from studies of photosynthesis pathways and plant growth to ground-breaking studies of carbon dioxide balances in ecosystems, regions, and even the entire glob...
