Book Synopsis Bioclimatology and Biogeography of Africa by : Henry N. Houérou
Download or read book Bioclimatology and Biogeography of Africa written by Henry N. Houérou and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-10 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering an area of over 130 million km2 spanning the Mediterranean, equator and tropics, the African continent features a spectacular geographic diversity. Consequently, it is characterised by extremely variable climatic, edaphic and ecological conditions, associated with a wide range of natural vegetation and wildlife, as well as human population density, crops and livestock. In this book, Henry Le Houérou presents his bioclimatic and biogeographic classification of Africa. The extensive data provide the basis for comparisons between various African regions, and with regions on other continents such as Latin America or the Indian subcontinent. The results constitute a rational basis for national, regional and sub-regional rural development planning, and for agricultural research dealing with aspects such as plant and animal introductions, the extrapolation or interpolation of experimental or developmental findings, and ecosystems dynamics. Possible problems of applications are also examined.

Book Synopsis Windows on the African Past by : Ahmed G. Fahmy
Download or read book Windows on the African Past written by Ahmed G. Fahmy and published by Africa Magna Verlag. This book was released on 2011 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Archaeobotany has significantly increased our knowledge of the relationships between humans and plants throughout the ages. As is amply illustrated in this volume, botanical remains preserved in archaeological contexts have great potential to inform us about past environments and the various methods used by ancient peoples to exploit and cultivate plants. This volume presents the proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on African Archaeobotany (IWAA) held at Helwan University in Cairo, Egypt, on 13-15 June 2009. Studies presented herein clearly illustrate that African archaeobotany is a dynamic field, with many advances in techniques and important case studies presented since the first meeting of IWAA held in 1994. Authors have employed classical and new archaeobotanical techniques, in addition to linguistics and ethnoarchaeology to increase our knowledge about the role of plants in ancient African societies. This book covers a wide range of African countries including Egypt, Ethiopia, Libya, Nigeria, South Africa, and the Canary Islands. It is of interest to archaeobotanists, archaeologists, historians, linguists, agronomists, and plant ecologists.

Book Synopsis Global Vegetation by : Jörg S. Pfadenhauer
Download or read book Global Vegetation written by Jörg S. Pfadenhauer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-09 with total page 858 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This up-to-date textbook of global vegetation ecology, which comprises the current state of knowledge, is long overdue and much-needed. It is a translation of the textbook “Vegetation der Erde” (Springer-Spektrum, Heidelberg). A short introductory chapter deals with the fundamentals of vegetation ecology that are of importance for the delimitation and characterization of the global vegetation presented in this book (chorology, evolution of plants, physiognomic and structural characteristics, phytodiversity and the human impact on it as well as general terminology concerning both plant growth forms and on vegetation structure types). In the following chapters the zonal and azonal vegetation from the tropics to the polar regions including high mountains is described and discussed. The main focus is on the characterization of interactions between the spatial location of plants and plant communities on the one hand and site conditions, historic and genetic processes, spatial and temporal patterns, ecophysiology and anthropogenic influences on the other hand. Additional information on specific topics is provided in 51 boxes.

Book Synopsis Ecosystem Analysis of Dry Tropical Forests - Udaipur and Bhilwara of Aravalli Hills by : Dr. Rita N. Kumar
Download or read book Ecosystem Analysis of Dry Tropical Forests - Udaipur and Bhilwara of Aravalli Hills written by Dr. Rita N. Kumar and published by Google Book Publishers. This book was released on with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forests are the most important reservoir of terrestrial biological diversity. Tropical forests are considered as the most diverse species richness in terrestrial ecosystems. The highest biodiversity generates a variety of resources, which helps to sustain the livelihood of local communities. They are different from all other terrestrial ecosystems with a very high diversity in species and life forms. However, most of the tropical forests are under high anthropogenic disturbances and require proper management practices to maintain sustainability and overall biodiversity. Tropical dry forests represent the major biome on the Earth. Generally, tropical dry forests are structure and floristically less complex than other forests of the world. Mature dry forest is converted into dry forest by grazing, selective logging, fuel wood harvesting, and anthropogenic activities. Tropical forest are degraded by cultivation, pastures, and clear-cutting for timber etc., and they are finally converted into grassland, scrublands and barren lands. Tropical forests account for 85% of the total forestland in India. These forests, however, are strongly affected by anthropogenic interventions. Because of high anthropogenic pressures, the dry deciduous forest cover in most parts of India is being converted into dry deciduous scrubland, dry grassland, and dry savannah. This situation in these forests calls for in depth study with respect to species diversity, structure, and regeneration. The Book Ecosystem Analysis of Dry Tropical Forests - Udaipur and Bhilwara of Aravalli Hills focuses on ecological investigations of dry tropical forests of Western India with special reference to tree diversity, biomass, and nutrient dynamics. Moreover, the authors have intensively studied the nutrient contents in different plant parts bole wood, bole bark, leaves, twig, branches, reproductive parts, stump root, lateral root and fine root of the dominant (tree, shrub and herb) species; nutrients in soil strata; nutrient dynamics and dry matter dynamics (biomass, net primary productivity), nutrient uptake in the different forest plantations; litter dynamics such as determine the pattern of litter fall, nutrient return to the soil, nutrient retranslocation, nutrient use efficiency and pattern of leaf litter decomposition; seasonal variation of soil microbial biomass; plant community structure, qualitative community analysis (species diversity indices), quantitative characters such as frequency, density, abundance, relative frequency, relative density of the tree species, composition, dominance, relative dominance and important value index. The present book would certainly be a handy guide for forest managers, forest conservationists, policy makers, and decision authorities to prevent the unrestrained exploitation of tropical forest biodiversity and its resources, devastation of impending forested habitats, and unrestrained activities by humans in tropical forest ecosystems of the world.
Book Synopsis Origin of Tropical Diversity: From Clades to Communities by : James Edward Richardson
Download or read book Origin of Tropical Diversity: From Clades to Communities written by James Edward Richardson and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2017-01-12 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume we aimed to assess progress in determining the processes by which current patterns of tropical biodiversity were established and are maintained. Tropical regions are highly species-rich and we present studies that have improved our understanding of the generation of that diversity at local, regional and global scales. We demonstrate how diverse fields from molecular phylogenetics, phylogeography, palaeontology and palaeoecology continue to improve our understanding of the natural history of the tropics.
