Pines and Their Mixed Forest Ecosystems in the Mediterranean Basin
Author: Gidi Ne'eman
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030636259
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 744
Book Description
Almost 20 years after the first MEDPINE book "Ecology, biogeography and management of Pinus halepensis and P. brutia forest ecosystems in the Mediterranean basin "(Ne'eman and Trabaud, 2000) was published, this new book presents up-to-date and state of the art information, covering a wide range of topics concerning Mediterranean pine trees growing in native and planted forests, their ecosystems and management. This will be an essential source of scientific information for learning, exploring planning and managing mediterranean pine and mixed forests. We focus on: genetics, adaptation, distribution and evolution; ecophysiology and drought resistance; pine and mixed forest ecosystems; forest dynamics biodiversity and biotic interactions; fire ecology; ecosystem services and policy; afforestation and management; all under the effect of global climate change. While forests are studied mainly in temperate and tropical zones, in the light of current climate change, focusing on Mediterranean forests growing in semi-humid to semi-arid zones is more important than ever. This book will include mostly review chapters (and two outstanding case studies) contributed by leading scientists, foresters and managers, and will serve as a scientific textbook for students of biology, agriculture and forestry, researchers of ecology forestry and related fields, forest managers, policy and decision makers.

Book Description
"The Genus Pinus" by George Russell Shaw George R. Shaw was an American architect who, in retirement , became famous as a botanist. In this book, he discusses the pine tree and its different species. He describes these mighty plants, including their growing conditions and ideal environment. He was inspired upon seeing Mexican pines thriving in a vastly different climate than the climate of the pine trees he was used to seeing. This adaptability pushed him to study these trees in more detail.

Relevant Perspectives in Global Environmental Change
Author: Julius Agboola
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 9533077093
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
Over the years, environmental change has sharpened significant dynamic evolution and knowledge in organizational structures of organisms, from cellular/molecular to macro-organism level including our society. Changes in social and ecological systems due to environmental change will hopefully result in a shift towards sustainability, with legislative and government entities responding to diverse policy and management issues concerning the building, management and restoration of social-ecological systems on a regional and global scale. Solutions are particularly needed at the regional level, where physical features of the landscape, biological systems and human institutions interact. The purpose of this book is to disseminate both theoretical and applied studies on interactions between human and natural systems from multidisciplinary research perspectives on global environmental change. It combines interdisciplinary approaches, long-term research and a practical solution to the increasing intensity of problems related to environmental change, and is intended for a broad target audience ranging from students to specialists.
