Описание: There is currently a growing interest in mosses inspired by: 1) Their use as atmospheric air quality biomonitors, 2) their importance as ecological status markers of global changes in hostile environments, and 3) their use in various bioengineering and biotechnological applications. Moreover, additional attention to mosses stems from their importance as the dominant terrestrial plants in high latitudes -- most notably arctic and subarctic regions -- that are subjected to climate warming. This book aims to characterize poorly studied aspects of the chemical composition of inventoried mosses across not only the subarctic, but also the Antarctic regions. This book focuses strongly on mosses inhabiting western and northern Siberia and European Russia, with nine total chapters devoted to these regions. Out of more than 25,000 studies dealing with mosses (from 1950 to 2018), only 300 were devoted to mosses from Siberia (WoS, all databases). This book also focuses on the use of mosses as bioindicators; physio-chemical principles and case studies of applications for tracing industrial pollution are discussed. Additionally, the process of moss biomineralization in a petrifying spring is also considered. Taken together, the twelve chapters presented provide a comprehensive overview of mosses in ecology, biodiversity, biogeochemistry, and mineralogy.

Описание: This is the first book to cover England`s rare and threatened mosses and liverworts, collectively known as bryophytes. As a group, they are the most ancient land plants and occupy a unique position in the colonization of the Earth by plant life. However, many are at risk from habitat loss, pollution, climate change, and other factors. Britain is on

Описание:

Ecological Guide to the Mosses and Common Liverworts of the Northeast is an essential introduction to identifying mosses and common liverworts found in the northeastern United States and Canada. This richly illustrated guide, organized by substrate, offers readers with little prior experience or knowledge an intuitive, easy-to-use method for distinguishing over 250 species of bryophytes in the field.

Sue Alix Williams teaches us how to narrow down species possibilities at a site by first paying attention to the particular substrate, such as a tree trunk or a river rock. Field and microscopic keys detail characteristics visible by the naked eye or through a microscope. Drawings of plant features placed side-by-side for quick comparison accompany photo galleries of species. With an illustrated overview of bryophyte terminology and tips for collecting specimens, Ecological Guide to the Mosses and Common Liverworts of the Northeast is an invaluable resource for outdoor enthusiasts looking to learn more about these marvelous plants.
