This working ecological classification summarizes nearly 700 terrestrial ecological systems of Latin America and the Caribbean, and describes applications of these systems for conservation assessment, ecological inventory and monitoring, land management, and other uses.
This 271-page book covers terrestrial, freshwater palustrine, riparian, and estuarine communities in New Hampshire, and includes a concise overview of the Granite State's landforms, climate, regional vegetation patterns, and ecoregions.
Biologists disagree as to what constitutes a species, with the trend lately towards applying progressively smaller levels of differentiation as evidence of species status.
This classification subset includes all alliances and community associations attributed to the three National Forests in the northern half of Mississippi (Delta, Holly Springs, and Tombigbee), as well as some for which more data are needed to confirm their occurrence. This report is intended for use by Forest Service personnel and other ecologists in the area. Fieldwork took place primarily in 2002.
This classification subset includes all alliances and community associations attributed to the Nantahala-Pisgah National Forest in North Carolina, as well as some for which more data are needed to confirm their occurrence. This report is intended for use by Forest Service personnel and other ecologists in the area. Fieldwork took place primarily in 1994-1995, during the early life of this project.
This classification subset includes all alliances and community associations presently attributed to the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area in Kentucky and Tennessee, as well as some for which more data are needed to confirm their occurrence. This report is intended for use by Forest Service personnel and other ecologists in the area.
This classification subset includes all alliances and community associations attributed to the Kisatchie National Forest in Louisiana, as well as some for which more data are needed to confirm their occurrence. This report is intended for use by Forest Service personnel and other ecologists working in the area. Fieldwork took place primarily in 1994-1995, during the early life of this project.
Synthesizing the experiences of more than two dozen sites around the world, this booklet describes how marine managed areas (MMAs) increase the diversity and abundance of native organisms and ecosystem resilience for generations to come.
