The possible effects of climate change on the spatial and temporal variation of the altitudinal temperature gradient and the consequences for growth potential in the uplands of northern England
This thesis studies the potential impacts of lapse rate changes on the altitudinal thermal resource gradient in Northern England and hence of climate change on upland climate. The extreme marginality of the Pennine uplands in terms of climatic potential for plant growth is explained by reference to...
