This book was released on 2001 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boswellia papyrifera (Del.) Hochst. is a deciduous gum-producing multipurpose perennial tree species growing in Sudanian and Sahelian regions. The tree is tapped on the stem for oleo-gum called olibanum (true frankincense). Land clearing for agriculture and un-regulated grazing are threatening the future of the natural Boswellia woodlands in Eritrea. Against this background, a study was carried out to investigate the distribution of the species and the factors determining its distribution in Eritrea, to study the structure and dynamics of Boswellia populations, including the natural regeneration, and to identify the factors causing the decline of Boswellia woodlands and measures which can reverse this situation. At macro-level, the distribution of the species was found to be limited to the southwestern and southern parts of the country between 800-1850 m altitude receiving a mean annual rainfall of 375-700 mm with a dependable length of growing period of 45-100 days. At micro-level, the abundance and distribution of the species was found to be affected in order of importance by altitude, land use intensity, soil organic matter, and to a lesser extent by silt and pH. Tree development studies showed that trees in the lowlands were twice as high as those in the highlands. The most important outcome of the population structure study is the lack of regeneration. Out of five areas investigated regeneration was only found at two sites where trees were not tapped and which were not accessible to livestock. Further research showed that the present system of intensive annual tapping throughout the dry season leads to low production of non-viable seeds and that where viable seeds are produced, seedlings and saplings are usually destroyed by livestock. Establishment of enclosures in which tapping and grazing is not allowed were found to be an effective measure to promote natural regeneration. Further research is needed to refine this system and to investigate the feasibility of replanting former Boswellia areas.

Book excerpt: Frankincense, also called olibanum, is an aromatic resin used since ancient times for incense, perfume and aromatherapy. It is readily available as an essential oil or as a supplement or extract, and studies have shown that it may enhance heart health and liver health and soothe pain and inflammation. This new volume is a comprehensive desktop reference book specifically gum olibanum - frankincense. It introduces the significance of the species and covers the botany, phytochemistry, propagation, extraction, and pharmacological uses. It also discusses the species’ genetic diversity using molecular markers, in vitro propagation and biotechnological aspects of Boswellia species, the trade and commerce of frankincense, and as well as its threats and conservation.

Book Synopsis Degraded Forests in Eastern Africa by : Frans Bongers
Download or read book Degraded Forests in Eastern Africa written by Frans Bongers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-09-23 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forest degradation as a result of logging, shifting cultivation, agriculture and urban development is a major issue throughout the tropics. It leads to loss in soil fertility, water resources and biodiversity, as well as contributes to climate change. Efforts are therefore required to try to minimize further degradation and restore tropical forests in a sustainable way. This is the first research-based book to examine this problem in East Africa. The specific focus is on the forests of Ethiopia, Tanzania and Uganda, but the lessons learned are shown to be applicable to neighbouring countries and others in the tropics. A wide range of forest types are covered, from dry Miombo forest and afromontane forests, to forest-savannah mosaics and wet forest types. Current management practices are assessed and examples of good practice presented. The role of local people is also emphasized. The authors describe improved management and restoration through silviculture, plantation forestry and agroforestry, leading to improvements in timber production, biodiversity conservation and the livelihoods of local people.

Book excerpt: "In Toponymy on the Periphery, Julien Charles Cooper conducts a study of the rich geographies preserved in Egyptian texts relating to the desert regions east of Egypt. These regions, filled with mines, quarries, nomadic camps, and harbours are often considered as an unimportant hinterland of the Egyptian state, but this work reveals the wide explorations and awareness Egyptians had of the Red Sea and its adjacent deserts, from the Sinai in the north to Punt in the south. The book attempts to locate many of the placenames present in Egyptian texts and analyse their etymology in light of Egyptian linguistics and the various foreign languages spoken in the adjacent deserts and distant shores of the Red Sea"--

Book Synopsis CITES as a Tool for Sustainable Development by : Marie-Claire Cordonier Segger
Download or read book CITES as a Tool for Sustainable Development written by Marie-Claire Cordonier Segger and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-31 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saving endangered species presents a critical and increasingly pressing challenge for conservation and sustainability movements, and is also matter of survival and livelihoods for the world's poorest and vulnerable communities. In 1973, a global Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) was adopted to stem the extinction of many species. In 2015, as part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 15) the United Nations called for urgent action to protect endangered species and their natural habitats. This volume focuses on the legal implementation of CITES to achieve the global SDGs. Activating interdisciplinary analysis and case studies across jurisdictions, the contributors analyse the potential for CITES to promote more sustainable development, proposing international and national regulatory innovations for implementing CITES. They consider recent innovations and key intervention points along flora and fauna value chains, advancing coherent recommendations to strengthen CITES implementation, including through the regulation of trade in endangered species globally and locally.
