Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Книга представляет собой первый обзор на английском языке систематики и биологии компактного таксона ящериц (около 20 видов), обитающих в пересеченных аридных и высокогорных ландшафтах Евразии и северо-восточной Африки. Эти рептилии в последнее время привлекают пристальное внимание герпетологов из-за своей заметности, обязанной сугубо дневному образу жизни и высокой численности и плотности популяций, характерной для большинства видов. До сих пор интерес герпетологов был сосредоточен главным образом на систематике и номенклатуре горных агам, а серьезные исследования по их образу жизни, экологии и поведению крайне немногочисленны. В этой книге наряду с обзором наиболее важной опубликованной информацией по изученным представителям таксона дана развернутая картина всех сторон биологии модельного вида – кавказской агамы Paralaudakia caucasia и его взаимоотношений с другим – хорасанской агамой P. erythrogaser. На протяжении 10 лет полевых исследований прослеживались биографии многих конкретных особей и изучались тонкие детали коммуникативного процесса в нескольких локальных популяциях. В основу исследования положен анализ социального поведения как фактора, интегрирующего дем в некую общность системной природы. Главной задачей было рассмотреть структуру в ее трансформациях из года в год как процесс изменений в поведении и социальных ролях взрослых особей и детенышей, ежегодно пополняющих контингент дема.Другие важные темы, затронутые в книге – это разнообразие носителей коммуникативной информации (оптическая, химическая, тактильная) у модельного и ряда других видов, а также характер взаимоотношений между близкородственными формами в зонах их контакта.

Download or read book Animal Life written by DK Publishing and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-01-17 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you think that watching all the nature programs on television qualifies you as an expert on the subject, think again! Do you really know what makes animals tick? Here are the answers, portrayed in stunning, awe-inspiring action sequences and explained in fascinating, in-depth prose. Thematically arranged by behavior trait, Animal Life explores and explains every aspect of animal behavior, including courtship rituals and sex lives, family relationships and defense mechanisms, hunting techniques and feeding habits. Side panels explore some of the field research on animal behavior and explain important conservation issues. The introductory chapters on the Animal Kingdom and on animal anatomy help explain how different animals have evolved and adapted to their environments, adaptations that may be relevant to particular behaviors. Destined to be the ultimate authority on animal behavior, this book also looks at key behavioral concepts such as how animals learn to behave and the role of instinct in the learning process.

Respected experts from six different countries cover the landscape-geographical features, the Karakum Desert, biodiversity (especially of birds and fishes) and ecosystems, as well as regional climate change. Special attention is paid to the Altyn Asyr Lake water reclamation project, to the morphometric characteristics of the Karashor Depression, and to the four-year-long satellite monitoring of the construction area in the vicinity of the Karashor Depression. The information presented is based on observational data and scientific literature, mainly published in Russian. This is the first English book on the Altyn Asyr Project. It addresses specialists working in various fields of environmental problems and ecology, water resources and management, land reclamation and agriculture, regional climate change, and international cooperation in the water sector in Turkmenistan and Central Asia.

Download or read book European Ecosystems written by G. Marcuzzi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 792 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many works, written in several European languages, on general, animal, and more especially vegetational ecology, but the space devoted to the study and description of the various ecosystems - both terrestrial and aquatic - of Europe is very limited, and this even in the books of European workers. Indeed, today we are in the strange position that, while some extra-European continents or parts of continents such as South Africa, the west part of South American, Australia, the arid zones of the Old World, not to mention Antarctica (that recentlY has at tracted the attention of a great number of students) have been very thoroughly studied and illustrated - for European ecosystems we have very scant informa tion, if we make allowance for the many analytical works on single natural or artificial environments (generally belonging to Central or Northern Europe). We have a beautiful book on the animal ecology of Palestine (today comprising Israel plus Jordan) written in the mid-thirties by Bodenheimer. However, Palestine does not belong to Europe, although some of the ecological and geographical peculiar ities of the western part of the country do correspond very closely to those of Southern Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many people, thoughts of the United Arab Emirates conjure images of ultramodern skyscrapers and rolling sand dunes. However, the Emirates are a rich mosaic of ecosystems and habitats that support surprisingly diverse communities of organisms, and there is growing awareness of the importance of these previously underappreciated natural assets. A Natural History of the Emirates provides a comprehensive overview of the unusual environmental setting of this young nation, and surveys the major ecosystems and the marine and terrestrial organisms occurring across the nation. From freshwater streams in the hyperarid Hajar Mountains to the world’s most temperature-tolerant coral reefs, the UAE is home to an astounding variety of uniquely adapted organisms that are providing insights into climate change and how organisms cope with and respond to extreme environmental conditions. The book closes with a section on human interactions with this unique environment, and proposes initiatives to ensure the protection of these unique natural assets into the future. This is an open access book.
