Features: "Low-Layer Atmosphere and Ecosystem Interaction in the Yangtze River Delta" is a monograph that comprehensively summarizes the research achievements of a major project funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China. It focuses on studying the impact of human activities on regional climate, environment, and ecosystems in the Yangtze River Delta over the past 20 years. Through systematic analysis of socio-economic, land use, climate, environmental, and ecological changes in the region over the past two decades, field experiments on the spatiotemporal distribution of ground-level trace gases and the transport fluxes of water, heat, and trace gases in farmland, the book develops and establishes regional climate-air quality-surface coupling models and farmland biogeochemical models, as well as numerical simulation experiments. It reveals the changing patterns of the physical and chemical structure of the low-layer atmosphere in the Yangtze River Delta and the mechanisms of its interaction with ecosystems, evaluates the potential impacts of future regional socio-economic development on climate and environment, and proposes corresponding recommendations for sustainable regional development. This book can serve as a reference for professional researchers in the fields of atmospheric science, environmental science, geographical science, and ecological science, as well as for leaders and managers in the field of regional sustainable development.
