9781108460248 - Comparative Plant Succession among Terrestrial Biomes of the World (Ecology, Biodiversity and Conservation) de Prach, Karel; Walker, Lawrence R. (14 resultados)

Paperback. Condición: Like New. First Edition. A nearly new copy with no defects, just a few hardly noticeable rubs and bumps and a 'damaged' stamp to one of the preliminary pages. Despite such this book looks and feels unread with contents that are crisp, fresh and tight. Thus a very nice book in great condition, now offered for sale at a reasonable price.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Despite a century of study by ecologists, recovery following disturbances (succession) is not fully understood. This book provides the first global synthesis that compares plant succession in all major terrestrial biomes and after all major terrestrial disturbances. It asks critical questions such as: Does succession follow general patterns across biomes and disturbance types? Do factors that control succession differ from biome to biome? If common drivers exist, what are they? Are they abiotic or biotic, or both? The authors provide insights on broad, generalizable patterns that go beyond site-specific studies, and present discussions on factors such as varying temporal dynamics, latitudinal differences, human-caused vs. natural disturbances, and the role of invasive alien species. This book is a must-read for researchers and students in ecology, plant ecology, restoration ecology and conservation biology. It also provides a valuable framework to aid land managers attempting to manipulate successional recovery following increasingly intense and widespread human-made disturbances. This book provides the first global synthesis comparing plant succession across all major terrestrial biomes and disturbances. Students and researchers in ecology, restoration ecology and conservation biology will benefit from insights into general patterns, and restorationists can utilize succession concepts in a rapidly changing world. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
