Book Synopsis Biodiversity, Conservation and Sustainable Use of Peat Swamp Forests in Malaysia by : A. Latiff
Download or read book Biodiversity, Conservation and Sustainable Use of Peat Swamp Forests in Malaysia written by A. Latiff and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peat swamp forest is one of the important edaphic forest types in Malaysia. About 7.2% of the country's total land area is estimated under such forests, mostly in Sarawak, Pahang and Johor. The biodiversity of peat forests is inadequately documented except that in Sarawak. More than 150 species belonging to 53 families of dominant plants have been reported. Species diversity differs with respect to geographical area and depth of the peat. The shallow peats of Peninsular Malaysian east coast are dominated by Campnosperma auriculata, Parishia insignis, Shorea platycarpa, Licuala spp.

Book Synopsis Peat Swamp Forests : Integrated Framework for Assessment and Management by : Shamsudin Ibrahim
Download or read book Peat Swamp Forests : Integrated Framework for Assessment and Management written by Shamsudin Ibrahim and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current extent and distribution of peat swamp in Peninsular Malaysia was discussed in the paper. Since most of the remaining undisturbed peat swamps in Peninsular Malaysia are under forest cover, the paper briefly discussed a forest structure and tree species composition in primary peat swamp forest in Peninsular Malaysia with emphasis on commercial timber species. Most of these areas are in deep peat with little options for other land uses. Those areas on shallow peat have been extensively reclaimed for agriculture. Currently, more areas on deep peat have also been developed for various land uses and triggered a major concern not only to the scientific community but also to the general public. As a result the extent of deep peat under forest declined rapidly in the last decade.

Download or read book Tropical Peatlands written by Jack Rieley and published by Earthscan / James & James. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tropical peatlands are found mostly in South East Asia, but also in Africa and in Central and South America. They and peat-swamp forests store large amounts of carbon and their destruction, particularly through the development of plantations for oil palm and other forms of agriculture, releases large quantities of greenhouse gases which contribute to climate change. They are also complex and vulnerable ecosystems, home to great biodiversity and a number of endangered species such as the orang utan.The aim of this book is to introduce this little known but important and vulnerable ecosystem in a way that explains its long standing interaction with the global carbon cycle and how it is being destroyed by deforestation and inappropriate development. The authors describe the origin and formation of peat in the tropics, its current location, extent and amount of carbon stored in it, its biodiversity and natural resource functions and key ecological functions and processes. Appropriate hydrology is the key to the development and maintenance of peatlands and the unique aspects of tropical peatland water supply and management are also explored. In the same vein the nutrient dynamics and budgets of this ecosystem are explained in order to show how complex habitats can be maintained mainly by rainwater containing very low concentrations of essential chemical elements. Past and present impacts on tropical peatlands in SE Asia are discussed and the need for restoration and wise use highlighted. Finally, projections are made about the future of this ecosystem as a result of continuing human impacts and climate change.
Book Synopsis Problem-Solving in Conservation Biology and Wildlife Management by : James P. Gibbs
Download or read book Problem-Solving in Conservation Biology and Wildlife Management written by James P. Gibbs and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-08-31 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This set of exercises has been created expressly for students and teachers of conservation biology and wildlife management who want to have an impact beyond the classroom. The book presents a set of 32 exercises that are primarily new and greatly revised versions from the book's successful first edition. These exercises span a wide range of conservation issues: genetic analysis, population biology and management, taxonomy, ecosystem management, land use planning, the public policy process and more. All exercises discuss how to take what has been learned and apply it to practical, real-world issues. Accompanied by a detailed instructor’s manual and a student website with software and support materials, the book is ideal for use in the field, lab, or classroom.

Book Synopsis Tropical Peatland Ecosystems by : Mitsuru Osaki
Download or read book Tropical Peatland Ecosystems written by Mitsuru Osaki and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-07 with total page 633 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an excellent resource for scientists, political decision makers, and students interested in the impact of peatlands on climate change and ecosystem function, containing a plethora of recent research results such as monitoring-sensing-modeling for carbon–water flux/storage, biodiversity and peatland management in tropical regions. It is estimated that more than 23 million hectares (62 %) of the total global tropical peatland area are located in Southeast Asia, in lowland or coastal areas of East Sumatra, Kalimantan, West Papua, Papua New Guinea, Brunei, Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah, Sarawak and Southeast Thailand. Tropical peatland has a vital carbon–water storage function and is host to a huge diversity of plant and animal species. Peatland ecosystems are extremely vulnerable to climate change and the impacts of human activities such as logging, drainage and conversion to agricultural land. In Southeast Asia, severe episodic droughts associated with the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, in combination with over-drainage, forest degradation, and land-use changes, have caused widespread peatland fires and microbial peat oxidation. Indonesia's 20 Mha peatland area is estimated to include about 45–55 GtC of carbon stocks. As a result of land use and development, Indonesia is the third largest emitter of greenhouse gases (2–3 Gtons carbon dioxide equivalent per year), 80 % of which is due to deforestation and peatland loss. Thus, tropical peatlands are key ecosystems in terms of the carbon–water cycle and climate change.
