Cedar glades are characterized by open areas of thin soils and gravelly limestone surrounded by forests of oak, hickory, winged elm, blue ash, and eastern redcedars. They have captured the attention of ecologists due to the harsh environment to which cedar glades have adapted. In this unique field guide, readers will find themselves transported into the rare and harsh landscape of Tennessee s cedar glades. Loaded with clear photographs and detailed descriptions of over 140 common plants and animals, this guide will help the casual observer discover the delicate beauty of these unique landscapes.

The guide also features informative essays covering the history of plants and cedar glade research, helpful diagrams detailing flowers and leaf morphology, and a documentary memoir that allows the reader to share a season in the author s life as well as the wildflowers he found along the way."

Book Synopsis Status of Pollinators in North America by : National Research Council
Download or read book Status of Pollinators in North America written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-05-13 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pollinators-insects, birds, bats, and other animals that carry pollen from the male to the female parts of flowers for plant reproduction-are an essential part of natural and agricultural ecosystems throughout North America. For example, most fruit, vegetable, and seed crops and some crops that provide fiber, drugs, and fuel depend on animals for pollination. This report provides evidence for the decline of some pollinator species in North America, including America's most important managed pollinator, the honey bee, as well as some butterflies, bats, and hummingbirds. For most managed and wild pollinator species, however, population trends have not been assessed because populations have not been monitored over time. In addition, for wild species with demonstrated declines, it is often difficult to determine the causes or consequences of their decline. This report outlines priorities for research and monitoring that are needed to improve information on the status of pollinators and establishes a framework for conservation and restoration of pollinator species and communities.
