Book Synopsis Plant Identification by : William Hawthorne
Download or read book Plant Identification written by William Hawthorne and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important prerequisite for successful conservation is a good understanding of what we seek to conserve. Nowhere is this more the case than in the fight to protect plant biodiversity, which is threatened by human activity in many regions worldwide. This book is written in the belief that tools that enable more people to understand biodiversity can not only aid protection efforts but also contribute to rural livelihoods. Among the most important of those tools is the field guide. Plant Identification provides potential authors of field guides with practical advice about all aspects of producing user-friendly guides which help to identify plants for the purposes of conservation, sustainable use, participatory monitoring or greater appreciation of biodiversity. The book draws on both scientific and participatory processes, supported by the experience of contributors from across the tropics. It presents a core process for producing a field guide, setting out key steps, options and techniques available to the authors of a guide and, through illustration, helps authors choose methods and media appropriate to their context.

Book Synopsis A Field Guide to the Acacias of Kenya by : Malcolm James Coe
Download or read book A Field Guide to the Acacias of Kenya written by Malcolm James Coe and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide describes, in pictures and words, all the different types of acacia trees that are such a distinctive feature of the Kenyan landscape. It shows both floral and vegetative characteristics - bark, leaves, pods, seeds - so that identification can easily be made even when the trees arenot in flower. This will be a valuable companion to anyone visiting or living in East Africa, and also to professional botanists, foresters, and ecologists. There are forty-four species of acacia in Kenya, out of twelve-hundred species globally, but they are of particular interest because they are both used by the local people and eaten by the wildlife. Acacias are also suited to commercial farming in arid conditions, which may be important if warmingtrends continue. The authors provide clear explanations of botanical terms, detailed field keys, and instructions for using the keys. No previous knowledge of plant sciences is required to enjoy this authoritative guide.
