It's 20 years old, but still good. This is based from the Smithsonian, they have a terrestrial ecosystem working group there and this was a publication by them. Check out the table of contents, it covers what you're interested in pretty closely.
It gives an overview of the problems, as well as how we know what we know, and a lot of detail as well into what was going on through time.
There has certainly been plenty of follow up work since then, but that's fairly easy to find with a literature search.
