The ecology and silviculture of oaks / Paul S. Johnson (2009)  

Public ISBD Titre : The ecology and silviculture of oaks Type de document : livre Auteurs : Paul S. Johnson, Auteur ; Stephen R. Shifley, Auteur ; Robert Rogers, Auteur Mention d'édition : 2nd ed. Editeur : Wallingford, UK : CABI Année de publication : 2009 Importance : 580 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-84593-474-3 Prix : 115.00 GBP Note générale : DOI : 10.1079/9781845934743.0000 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Quercus  Ecology  Silviculture  USA Résumé : This second edition contains ten chapters dealing with oak (Quercus)-related literature published since the first edition. Included are the relatively new subject areas of forest biomass use for fuel, the importance of carbon sequestration by forests, and how climate change is expected to affect the distribution of oaks and associated tree species. The chapters are grouped into three parts. The first part contains three chapters covering the ecological characteristics and distribution of oak species, the various kinds of oak forests in the USA and how they have been classified, and their history of human use. The second part comprises three chapters covering site productivity and stand development. An understanding of the productive capacity of oak forests is central to a broad spectrum of issues related to their management and potentialities, not only for timber but also for wildlife and other values, including carbon sequestration. The third part comprises four chapters on silvicultural methods and the growth and yield of oak forests.

The endangered species act at thirty: vol. 1: renewing the conservation promise / Goble, D.D.(Ed.) ; Scott, J.M.(Ed.) ; Davis, F.W.(Ed.) (2006)

Public ISBD Titre : The endangered species act at thirty: vol. 1: renewing the conservation promise Type de document : livre Auteurs : Goble, D.D.(Ed.) ; Scott, J.M.(Ed.) ; Davis, F.W.(Ed.) Editeur : Washington, D.C. : Island Press Année de publication : 2006 Importance : 372 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-59726-009-1 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé en rayon le 27/05/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biodiversity  Endangered species  Environmental policies  Landscape conservation  Legislation  Nature conservation  USA Résumé : The Endangered Species Act at Thirty is a comprehensive, multidisciplinary review of issues surrounding the Endangered Species Act, with a specific focus on the act's actual implementation record over the past thirty years. The result of a unique, multi-year collaboration among stakeholder groups from across the political spectrum, the two volumes offer a dispassionate consideration of a highly polarized topic. Renewing the Conservation Promise, Volume 1, puts the reader in a better position to make informed decisions about future directions in biodiversity conservation by elevating the policy debate from its current state of divisive polemics to a more-constructive analysis. It helps the reader understand how the Endangered Species Act has been implemented, the consequences of that implementation, and how the act could be changed to better serve the needs of both the species it is designed to protect and the people who must live within its mandates. Volume 2, which examines philosophical, biological, and economic dimensions of the act in greater detail, will be published in 2006. As debate over reforming the Endangered Species Act heats up in the coming months, these two books will be essential references for policy analysts and lawmakers; professionals involved with environmental law, science, or management; and academic researchers and students concerned with environmental law, policy, management, or science.

Biological invasions: economic and environmental costs of alien plant, animal and microbe species / David Pimentel (2002)

ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-8493-0836-9 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé en rayon le 28/05/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Australia  Biological invasions  Brazil  British Isles  Economic aspects  Environmental aspects  India  South Africa  USA Résumé : Biological Invasions assembles detailed information on components of the invasive-species problem from six continents. This volume reconfirms the diverse and unpredictable roles that non-native species assume as they invade new ecosystems: destruction of vital crops and forests, major damages to ecosystems leading to loss of biodiversity, soil erosion, and water loss. In addition, it covers the impact of disease organisms on human health and livestock. Information is provided on how the non-native species invade new ecosystems and the subsequent environmental effects of these invading species. Wherever possible, estimates on the economic impacts of the invading species are included.
