| Summary: | A summary is given of comparative work carried out within the I.B.P. Tundra Biome at an Arctic station (Greenland) and a sub-Antarctic station (South Georgia). The investigations covered many aspects of plant ecology, primary production and adaptation to polar environments. The work was extended by an international synthesis of results. General conclusions are reported and the current continuation of the studies is discussed. |
