This book aims to evaluate quantitatively the relationship between the geographical distribution of plant species and their corresponding climate conditions. A total of 196 dominant species of China were digitized into georeferenced data by means of Geographical Information System, and their climate envelops were all established. The plant taxa available in the atlas include 89 trees, 63 shrubs and 44 herbs.
