Cam Ecology

CAM Ecology is an academic framework that systematically investigates the ecological adaptations and environmental interactions of organisms utilizing crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) photosynthesis, distinguishing itself by integrating physiological mechanisms with ecosystem-level dynamics to explain plant survival strategies in arid and fluctuating environments.
