Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover, xi + 345 pages, b&w photos, figures and maps in text, NOT ex-library. Interior is clean and bright throughout, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. A light corner crease on last pages. Boards show creases to lower corners. Bright, untorn dust jacket with gentle creasing. -- This ecological study unravels the great paradox of the Australian continent: how lush, fire-sensitive rainforests manage to survive and persist in a landscape overwhelmingly dominated by and adapted to flame. The central argument rejects the view of rainforests as static, museum-like relics of a bygone Gondwanan era. Instead, it presents them as dynamic, embattled ecosystems locked in a constant struggle for territory at their boundaries with fire-prone sclerophyll vegetation. The analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the continent's diverse rainforest types - from the tropical Wet Tropics of Queensland to the temperate wilderness of Tasmania - and investigates the complex interplay of soils, climate, and topography that allows them to exist. This is a foundational text for understanding the deep history, precarious present, and uncertain future of these vital "islands of green." -- Contents: Preface; 1 Introduction 2 What is Australian rainforest? 3 The sclerophyll problem 4 The edaphic theory I. The control of rainforest by soil phosphorus 5 The edaphic theory II. Soil types, drainage, and fertility 6 The climate theory I. Water stress 7 The climate theory II. Light and teare, nutrient cycling, and topography 10 The fire theory III. Fire frequency, succession, and ecological drift 11 The fire theory IV. Aboriginal landscape burning 12 The fire theory V. Aridity and the evolution of flammable forests 13 The fire theory VI. Fire management and rainforest conservation 14 Summary; References; Index -- Why do Australian rainforests occur as islands within the vast tracts of Eucalyptus? Why is fire a critical ecological factor in every Australian landscape? What were the consequences of the use of fire by the Ice Age colonists? In this original and challenging book, David Bowman critically examines all hypotheses that have been advanced to answer these questions. He demonstrates that fire is the most critical factor in controlling the distribution of rainforest throughout Australia. Furthermore, while Aboriginal people used fire to skillfully manage and preserve habitats, he concludes that they did not significantly influence the evolution of Australia's unique flora and fauna. This volume, the first comprehensive overview of the diverse literature on this topic, solves the puzzle of the archipelago of rainforest habitats in Australia. It is essential reading for all ecologists, foresters, conservation biologists, and others interested in the biogeography and ecology of Australian rainforests.…
