Book Synopsis Riparian Landscapes by : George Patrick Malanson
Download or read book Riparian Landscapes written by George Patrick Malanson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-05-27 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Riparian Landscapes examines the ecological systems of streamside and floodplain areas from the perspective of landscape ecology. The specific spatial pattern of riparian vegetation is seen as a result of, and a control on, the ecological, geomorphological, and hydrological processes that operate along rivers. Riparian structures are controlled by the spatial dynamics of channels, flooding and soil moisture. These dynamics are part of integrated cascades of water, sediment, nutrients and carbon, to which animal and plant species respond in ways that illuminate community structure and competition. The role of the riparian zone in controlling species distribution and abundance is discussed. Intelligent management of these valuable ecological resources is highlighted. The potential for linking hydrological, geomorphological and ecological simulation models is also explored. This book will be of interest to graduate and professional research workers in environmental science, ecology and physical geography.
Book Synopsis Wetlands of Bottomland Hardwood Forests by : John R. Clark
Download or read book Wetlands of Bottomland Hardwood Forests written by John R. Clark and published by Elsevier Science & Technology. This book was released on 1981 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These Proceedings comprise two parts. Part I contains eight contributed papers on hydrology, fauna, soils, forests, agriculture and ecology. Part II comprises reports resulting from the five interdisciplinary workgroups whose participants included ecologists, botanists, zoologists, engineers, hydrologists, agrologists, dendrologists, resource managers and other specialists. Their aim was to evaluate conservation and management practices for wetland portions of the bottomland forests of the southeastern United States and to provide technical advice to responsible federal agencies. Thus the book is a state-of-knowledge review of scientific literature and current research, particularly that necessary to understand the effects of alterations such as forest clearing, land drainage or levee building that impair natural functions, i.e. production of timber, maintenance of water quality, flood water storage, support of migrating waterfowl and fish, carbon dioxide balance of the atmosphere etc.

Book Synopsis Prehistoric Indians of the Southeast by : John A. Walthall
Download or read book Prehistoric Indians of the Southeast written by John A. Walthall and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 1990-01-30 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the prehistory of the region encompassed by the present state of Alabama and spans a period of some 11,000 years—from 9000 B.C. and the earliest documented appearance of human beings in the area to A.D. 1750, when the early European settlements were well established. Only within the last five decades have remains of these prehistoric peoples been scientifically investigated. This volume is the product of intensive archaeological investigations in Alabama by scores of amateur and professional researchers. It represents no end product but rather is an initial step in our ongoing study of Alabama's prehistoric past. The extent of current industrial development and highway construction within Alabama and the damming of more and more rivers and streams underscore the necessity that an unprecedented effort be made to preserve the traces of prehistoric human beings that are destroyed every day by our own progress.

Book Synopsis Aquatic Insects of North Europe by : Anders N. Nilsson
Download or read book Aquatic Insects of North Europe written by Anders N. Nilsson and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquatic insects species in North Europe are found in ten different orders, representing a wide variety of form and life styles. Most diverse are the dipterans, the two-winged flies and midges, including among others the notorious blood-sucking pests of the boreal and subarctic regions. Other diverse orders are chiefly the beetles and caddisflies, including several hundreds of species occupying most of the available freshwater environments. Besides the aquatic beetles and bugs, insects classified as aquatic normally develop in water, whereas the adult flying forms are terrestrial. Swarming mayflies and hovering libellulas are well-known characteristics of lake and stream shores. Insect larvae are nowadays widely used in environmental monitoring, with actual species composition at a locality providing reliable evidence on the impacts of acidification and pollution. Environmental applications have engaged many people in the identification of aquatic insect larvae, on scientific, commercial, or governmental basis. However, these activities have been hampered by a general lack of an up-to-date standard work providing modern nomenclature and reliable identification keys including all known taxa from the region. This CD-ROM formatâ??which contains both Volume 1 and Volume 2 of the printed editions of Aquatic Insects of North Europe, published in 1996 and 1997 with a total of 714 pages and 3426 line drawingsâ??is designed to fill a taxonomic knowledge gap. The information provided focuses geographically on the Nordic Countriesâ??Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland. Aquatic Insects of North Europe is a rich source of information on natural history, morphology, faunistics, classification, and identification.

Book Synopsis Insects of Panama and Mesoamerica by : Diomedes Quintero
Download or read book Insects of Panama and Mesoamerica written by Diomedes Quintero and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 732 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the highest concentrations of insect species in the world is found in Mesoamerica and the Isthmus of Panama. Yet visitors and others interested in this abudant region have until now been frustrated by the lack of literature useful for identifying and learning about this incredible array of insect life. This volume provides a wealth of information on many of the most common groups of these neotropical insects. Written for students and interested general readers as well as entomologists, the book aims to inspire increased interest in the study and conservation of this rich yet fragile biological region. The authors note that the volume was prepared with a special sense of urgency since the destruction of tropical forests has accelerated to such alarming proportions that today the Pacific lowland forests of Panama have been virtually extirpated, along with many of their native insect species, and other regions are threatened. Thus the gathering and publishing of information about this fragile and priceless natural heritage is an urgent task. The 42 chapters cover 20 insect orders and review the geology and biogeography of the area. The contributors offer a wide variety of viewpoints, ranging from natural history, to detailed ecological studies, to taxonomic treatments. The book introduces the majority of the smaller insect orders as well as diverse groups within larger orders. It is illustrated with hundreds of line drawings, distribution maps, and black-and-white photographs. A set of abstracts in English and Spanish is provided at the end of the book. This is the first work to focus on the insect fauna of Mesoamerica and Panama since Biologia Centrali-Americana, an exclusively systematic work published nearly 100 years ago.
Download or read book Bergsonism written by Gilles Deleuze and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1988-03 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this analysis of one major philosopher by another, Gilles Deleuze identifies three pivotal concepts - duration, memory, and lan vital - that are found throughout Bergson's writings and shows the relevance of Bergson's work to contemporary philosophical debates. He interprets and integrates these themes into a single philosophical program, arguing that Bergson's philosophical intentions are methodological. They are more than a polemic against the limitations of science and common sense, particularly in Bergson's elaboration of the explanatory powers of the notion of duration - thinking in terms of time rather than space.
