    Plant Biodiversity and Ecology of Yakutia

    Collections series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Outside Russia very little is known about the terrestrial ecology, vegetation, biogeographical patterns, and biodiversity of the enormously extensive ecosystems of Yakutia, Siberia. These systems are very special in that they function on top of huge layers of permafrost and are exposed to very severe and extreme weather conditions, the range between winter and summer temperatures being more than ...

  • Ecological Succession on Fallowed Shifting Cultivation Fields

    A Review of the Literature

    Collections series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The book reviews the literature on the ecological succession of plants on fallowed swiddens in tropical forests. Patterns of ecological succession in tropical forests are insufficiently understood, partly because results are scattered through a large number of case studies reported in academic articles. So far, no publication has attempted to bring these different case studies together to identify ... En savoir plus
