Download or read book Ecosystems of California written by Harold Mooney and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2016-01-19 with total page 1009 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This long-anticipated reference and sourcebook for California’s remarkable ecological abundance provides an integrated assessment of each major ecosystem type—its distribution, structure, function, and management. A comprehensive synthesis of our knowledge about this biologically diverse state, Ecosystems of California covers the state from oceans to mountaintops using multiple lenses: past and present, flora and fauna, aquatic and terrestrial, natural and managed. Each chapter evaluates natural processes for a specific ecosystem, describes drivers of change, and discusses how that ecosystem may be altered in the future. This book also explores the drivers of California’s ecological patterns and the history of the state’s various ecosystems, outlining how the challenges of climate change and invasive species and opportunities for regulation and stewardship could potentially affect the state’s ecosystems. The text explicitly incorporates both human impacts and conservation and restoration efforts and shows how ecosystems support human well-being. Edited by two esteemed ecosystem ecologists and with overviews by leading experts on each ecosystem, this definitive work will be indispensable for natural resource management and conservation professionals as well as for undergraduate or graduate students of California’s environment and curious naturalists.
Book Synopsis Quaternary Uplift and Deformation of the Western Transverse Ranges and Santa Maria Basin of South-central Coastal California Using Marine Terraces by : Eric Robert Tutterow (Graduate student)

This book was released on 2021 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The western Transverse Ranges and southern Coast Ranges of California are adjacent to one another but experience different deformation styles and rates. We used marine terraces along the coast between these two areas as markers to see how the fast rates of uplift and deformation in the western Transverse Ranges transition to slower rates in the southern Coast Ranges. Recent improvements to sediment dating techniques, paleo sea-level curves, and remote imagery allowed for mapping of marine terraces from Point Conception to Point Sal in south-central coastal California to fill data gaps in coastal uplift rates and evaluate implications for existing data and models to better understand amount and timing of local and regional uplift. We used post infrared-infrared stimulated luminescence dating to determine ages of two flights of marine terraces at five locations. Refined terrace chronology indicates the lowest emergent marine terrace formed ~49.5 ka and the other, higher emergent marine terrace formed ~84 ka. Refined terrace ages suggest rock uplift rates ranging from 0.59 to 1.96 m/ka throughout the study area from 84 ka to present. Our data suggests the Santa Maria Basin, which is the transition zone between the rotating Transverse Ranges and non-rotating southern Coast Ranges, has coastal uplift rates more similar to the western Transverse Ranges than the southern Coast Ranges. Our data is consistent with models that attribute Quaternary shortening and uplift of the Santa Maria Basin to ongoing vertical axis rotation of the western Transverse Ranges, which is accommodated by an underlying detachment fault and ramp.

Book Synopsis Quaternary Marine Terraces on Cyprus by : Zomenia Zomeni

Book excerpt: Numerous flights of Quaternary marine terraces are present around the island of Cyprus, in the Eastern Mediterranean. These terraces are a result of the global eustatic sea-level curve and local tectonism. Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5 through MIS 13 terraces are identified, mapped and dated. Palaeoshoreline elevation, an excellent indicator for a past sea-level, and new numerical geochronology are used to calculate an Upper Pleistocene uplift rate for various coastal sectors. Southwestern Cyprus presents the highest uplift rates of 0.35-0.65 mm/year with other sections suggesting uplift of 0.07-0.15 mm/year. This Upper Pleistocene tectonic signal is attributed to an active offshore subduction/collision system to the southwest of Cyprus, evidenced from the seismic activity offshore and the surface expression of a blind thrust fault in the Pafos region. Soil chronosequences and geology in southwestern Cyprus are studied in order to understand the Quaternary development on this uplifting landscape. Soil profile properties are used to calculate a profile development index (PDI), a method often applied to geomorphic surfaces as a relative dating method. Well-developed red and clayey soils occur in the coastal sector, on broad and low-angle surfaces, specifically on marine terraces and alluvial fans. Higher elevations of steep slopes consisting of carbonate and ophiolite lithologies host poorly developed soils. Results show variable PDI's on uplifted terraces, obscured by transported materials, active alluvial fan buildup and hillslope erosion. Calcium carbonate build-up in soil profiles in the form of nodular and laminar accumulations are used as another relative dating method. Geochronology of marine terraces is used as an age range approximation for carbonate stages. Geomorphologic mapping focuses on the southeastern part of the Pafos thrust fault, the only point on the landscape where this otherwise blind fault is exposed on the surface. This is the location of Palaipafos, an important Ancient polity, today the site of the village of Kouklia. Geoarchaeological study suggests little landscape change over the last 4000 years in the vicinity of the urban core of Palaipafos, this being attributed to bedrock and landscape resistance of its location, a plateau at 80 m amsl. Copper deposits in the Palaipafos hinterland had provided a valuable resource at one time. Soil and water resources continue to sustain agriculture. Tectonic uplift in this part of the Pafos thrust fault is estimated to be 2.1mm/year, considered, together with Late Holocene sea-level change responsible for the shifting locations and eventual abandonment of the Palaipafos harbor in the coastal lowlands.
