Download or read book Taiga written by Trevor Day and published by Heinemann-Raintree Library. This book was released on 2010 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taiga forests occupy a larger area than all the tropical rain forests. These dark, mostly coniferous, forests grow in a band of extreme weather circling the northern hemisphere from Alaska to Japan. Biologists divide the living world into major zones called biomes, including deserts, oceans, tropical forests, and tundra. Looking at biomes helps us understand the connections between our planet's climate and the plants and animals that live there. Biomes also have a huge impact on people. Each book reveals the fascinating web of relationships between climate, plants, animals, and people that makes every biome unique. Inside this book Superb photography, bringing each biome dramatically to life Clear maps of each major region of every featured habitat identify the main areas of environmental stress Fact panels give at-a-glance information on each region Meets curriculum standards for the study of biomes and their importance for plants, animals, and people Glossary, sources of further information, and index Book jacket.

Book Synopsis Tundra-Taiga Biology by : Robert M. M. Crawford
Download or read book Tundra-Taiga Biology written by Robert M. M. Crawford and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arctic Tundra and adjacent Boreal Forest or Taiga support the most cold-adapted flora and fauna on Earth. The evolutionary capacity of both plants and animals to adapt to these thermally limiting conditions has always attracted biological investigation and is a central theme of this book. How the polar biota will adapt to a warmer world is creating significant and renewed interest in this habitat. The Arctic has always been subject to climatic fluctuation and the polar biota has successfully adapted to these changes throughout its evolutionary history. Whether or not climatic warming will allow the Boreal Forest to advance onto the treeless Tundra is one of the most tantalizing questions that can be asked today in relation to terrestrial polar biology. Tundra-Taiga Biology provides a circum-polar perspective of adaptation to low temperatures and short growing seasons, together with a history of climatic variation as it has affected the evolution of terrestrial life in the Tundra and the adjacent forested Taiga. It will appeal to researchers new to the field and to the many students, professional ecologists and conservation practitioners requiring a concise but authoritative overview of the biome. Its accessibility also makes it suitable for undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in tundra, taiga, and arctic ecology.

Book Synopsis Leaving Footprints in the Taiga by : Donatas Brandišauskas
Download or read book Leaving Footprints in the Taiga written by Donatas Brandišauskas and published by Studies in the Circumpolar Nor. This book was released on 2017 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowhere have recent environmental and social changes been more pronounced than in post-Soviet Siberia. Donatas Brandisauskas probes the strategies that Orochen reindeer herders of southeastern Siberia have developed to navigate these changes. "Catching luck" is one such strategy that plays a central role in Orochen cosmology -- luck implies a vernacular theory of causality based on active interactions of humans, non-humans, material objects, and places. Brandisauskas describes in rich details the skills, knowledge, ritual practices, storytelling, and movements that enable the Orochen to "catch luck" (or not, sometimes), to navigate times of change and upheaval.

Book Synopsis The Consolations of the Forest by : Sylvain Tesson
Download or read book The Consolations of the Forest written by Sylvain Tesson and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A journalist embarks on the adventure of a lifetime—living in a remote cabin in Siberia—in this Thoreau-esque meditation on escaping the chaos of modern life and rediscovering the luxury of solitude. “…wry, exuberant, and a perfect balm for anyone who dreams of running away to the middle of nowhere.” —San Francisco Chronicle No stranger to inhospitable places, journalist Sylvain Tesson exiles himself to a wooden cabin on Siberia’s Lake Baikal—a full day’s hike from any “neighbor”—with his thoughts, his books, a couple of dogs, and many bottles of vodka for company. Writing from February to July, he shares his deep appreciation for the harsh but beautiful land, the resilient men and women who populate it, and the bizarre and tragic history that has given Siberia an almost mythological place in the imagination. Rich with observation, introspection, and the good humor necessary to laugh at his own folly, Tesson’s memoir is about the ultimate freedom of owning your own time. Only in the hands of a gifted storyteller can an experiment in isolation become an exceptional adventure accessible to all. By recording his impressions in the face of silence, his struggles in a hostile environment, his hopes, doubts, and moments of pure joy in communion with nature, Tesson makes a decidedly out-of-the-ordinary experience relatable. The awe and joy are contagious, and one comes away with the comforting knowledge that “as long as there is a cabin deep in the woods, nothing is completely lost.”

Book Synopsis Khanty, People of the Taiga by : Andrew Wiget
Download or read book Khanty, People of the Taiga written by Andrew Wiget and published by University of Alaska Press. This book was released on 2011-05-15 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on nearly twenty years of fieldwork, as well as ethnohistory, politics, and economics, this volume takes a close look at changes in the lives of the indigenous Siberian Khanty people and draws crucial connections between those changes and the social, cultural, and political transformation that swept Russia during the transition to democracy. Delving deeply into the history of the Khanty—who were almost completely isolated prior to the Russian revolution—the authors show how the customs, traditions, and knowledge of indigenous people interact with and are threatened by events in the larger world.
