The Quantitative Reconstruction of Palaeoenvironments and Palaeoclimates Based on Plants
植物对环境的响应——定量重建古气候的研究进展

The progress of the quantitative reconstruction of palaeoenvironments and palaeoclimates based on plants is introduced in this paper. The methods of climate analysis of endemic species, coexistence approach, leaf physiognomy, stomata parameters and atmospheric CO2 concentration have been applied in the recent researches on palaeoenvironments and palaeoclimates in China.
