Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Ecosystems worldwide are facing increasing threats from climate change, and it is important to understand their impacts on key organisms. Ants are one of the most ubiquitous, widespread, and abundant groups of animals on earth, providing a variety of basic and vital ecological services.
Although there is increasing knowledge about the effects of climate change on ants, this information is scattered and we are still far from a global understanding of its consequences for ant communities and their provision of ecosystem services. We have even less of a mechanistic understanding of how and why some species and communities are more vulnerable or resilient than others. This book synthesizes the latest findings about the effect of climate change on ants addressing different level of ecological organizations, from individuals to ecosystem services relating to interactions between ants and plants.
Table of Contents:
Ant responses to climate change: an introduction.- Behavioural adaptations of ants to stressful warming conditions.- A synthesis of ant morphological responses to climate change.- Ant responses to climate change: insights from critical thermal limits and thermal performance curves.- Ant desiccation resistance in the light of climate change.- Climate change and population-level responses in ants.- Ant invasions under climate change.- Using latitudinal climatic gradients to inform ant responses to climate change.- Elevation Gradients in Montane Ant Species.- Functional and phylogenetic change in ant communities across elevational gradients: informing impacts of climate change.- Effects of increased aridity on ant diversity in arid lands.- Ant responses to climate change: the importance of the vertical dimension.- Climate-change impacts on ant-plant mutualistic networks: insights from current studies and future prospects.- Ant-plant protection mutualisms mediated by extrafloral nectar: a macroecological analysis of outcomes in relation to precipitation.- Climate change and the provision of ant-mediated ecosystem services.- Climate change impacts on ant-mediated seed dispersal.- What future for ant-aphid mutualism under climate change?.- Carbon and nitrogen fluxes in leaf-cutter ant sites in a changing climate.- Ant responses to climate change: a synthesis.
