Описание: This book explores the ethnobiology of corals by examining the various ways in which humans, past and present, have exploited and taken care of coral and coralline habitats. This book will bring the educated general audience closer to corals by exploring the various circumstances of human-coral coexistence by providing scientifically sound and jargon-free perspectives and experiences from across the globe. Corals are a vital part of the marine environment since they promote and sustain marine and global biodiversity while providing numerous other environmental and cultural services. Countless valuable coral conservation efforts are published in academic and general audience venues on a daily basis. However relevant, few of these reports show a direct, deeper understanding of the intimate relationship between people and corals throughout the world’s societies. Ethnobiology of Corals and Coral Reefs establishes an intimate bond between the audience and the wonder of corals and their importance to humankind.

Описание: Mediterranean forests provide a diversity of products such as wood, non-wood forest products including cork, fodder for livestock and aromatic plants and game, all of which are important for socio-economic or cultural development and contribute to food security and poverty alleviation in rural areas. But Mediterranean forests also are facing a mix of threats such as climatic change, agricultural expansion, tourism, urban development and other land use practices that are contributing to forest area losses. Mediterranean forests will be one of the most affected forest ecosystems in the near future as temperatures will increase and rain will decrease. This book aims to provide scientific knowledge for researchers, students, local managers and policy makers. The book is divided into eleven chapters covering not only ecological, but also economic and social perspectives on climate change and Mediterranean forest management. The authors provide information about different research projects and examples related to climate change and forest natural regeneration, genetic aspects of forest ecosystems, forest fires, environmental services, traditional markets and social perspectives on adaptation in forest management.

Описание: "Water Resources - Present and Future Uses" is a revision of a lecture delivered to the senior class of the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale University in 1918. It concerns the subject of water, particularly the importance of understanding and maintaining water supplies in light of the First World War and its effects thereon. Frederick Haynes Newell (1862 - 1932) was the first Director of the United States Reclamation Service. Other notable works by this author include: "Oil Well Drilling" (1888), "Agriculture by Irrigation" (1894), and "Hydrography of the Arid Regions" (1891). Contents include: "Research", "What is Reconstruction?", "Conservation", "Economics", "Engineering Relations", "Broader Relation", "Water in General", "What is Water?", "Uses of Water", "Where Water is Found", "Science Involved", "Meteorology", "Hydrography and Hydrology", "Geography, Geology, and Physiography", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.

Описание: Bis heute wird Charles Darwins Theorie vom Uberlebenskampf der Arten mit dem traditionellen „Baummodell" der Evolution visualisiert. Doch in Darwins Denken stellte fruh die Koralle eine faszinierende Alternative zum Baum als Darstellung der Entwicklung der Species dar. Horst Bredekamp zeigt, wie der Korallenliebhaber und -sammler Darwin in ihr eine adaquatere Veranschaulichung der Evolution durch naturliche Selektion fand: Sie galt seit der Antike als Bild der gesamten Natur, wachst anarchisch in alle Richtungen und erhebt nicht mehr den Menschen zur Kronung der Entwicklung. Darwin erweist sich so im Modell der Koralle zugleich als Zerstorer und Vollender naturphilosophischen Denkens.

From prominent outdoorsman and nature writer Mark Kenyon comes an engrossing reflection on the past and future battles over our most revered landscapes--America's public lands.
Every American is a public-land owner, inheritor to the largest public-land trust in the world. These vast expanses provide a home to wildlife populations, a vital source of clean air and water, and a haven for recreation.
Since its inception, however, America's public land system has been embroiled in controversy--caught in the push and pull between the desire to develop the valuable resources the land holds or conserve them. Alarmed by rising tensions over the use of these lands, hunter, angler, and outdoor enthusiast Mark Kenyon set out to explore the spaces involved in this heated debate, and learn firsthand how they came to be and what their future might hold.
Part travelogue and part historical examination, That Wild Country invites readers on an intimate tour of the wondrous wild and public places that are a uniquely profound and endangered part of the American landscape.
