This book was released on 2009 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: contributors - biologists, ecologists, geomorphologists, historians, hydrologists, lawyers, and political scientists - weave together threads from their diverse perspectives to reveal the processes that shape the past, present, and future of the San Pedro's riparian and aquatic ecosystems. They review the biological communities of the San Pedro and the stream hydrology and geomorphology that affects its riparian biota. They then look at conservation and management challenges along three sections of the San Pedro, from its headwaters in Mexico in its confluence with the Gila River, describing legal and policy issues and their interface with science; activities related to mitigation, conservation, and restoration; and a prognosis of the potential for sustaining the basin's riparian system." "Complemented by a foreword written by James Shuttleworth, these chapters demonstrate the complexity of the San Pedro's ecological and hydrological conditions, showing that there are no easy --

Download or read book Raptors of New Mexico written by Jean-Luc E. Cartron and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2010-08-16 with total page 1275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No book has ever before specifically focused on the birds of prey of New Mexico. Both Florence Bailey (1928) and J. Stokley Ligon (1961) published volumes on the birds of New Mexico, but their coverage of raptors was somewhat limited. In the ensuing years a great deal of new information has been collected on these mighty hunters' distribution, ecology, and conservation, including in New Mexico. The book begins with a history of the word "raptor." The order of Raptatores, or Raptores, was first used to classify birds of prey in the early nineteenth century, derived from the Latin word raptor, one who seizes by force. The text then includes the writings of thirty-seven contributing authors who relate their observations on these regal species. For example, Joe Truett recounts the following in the chapter on the Swainson's Hawk: "From spring to fall each year at the Jornada Caves in the Jornada del Muerto, Swainson's hawks assemble daily to catch bats. The bats exit the caves--actually lava tubes--near sundown. The hawks swoop in, snatch bats from the air, and eat them on the wing." Originally from France, Jean-Luc Cartron has lived and worked on several continents, finding his passion in the wide-open spaces of New Mexico. He became fascinated by the birds of prey and has studied their ecology and conservation for nearly twenty years. Raptors of New Mexico will provide readers with a comprehensive treatment of all hawks, eagles, kites, vultures, falcons, and owls breeding or wintering in New Mexico, or simply migrating through the state. This landmark study is also beautifully illustrated with more than six hundred photographs, including the work of more than one hundred photographers, and more than twenty species distribution maps.

This book was released on 2020-03-16 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Birds of the Middle San Pedro Valley of Southeast Arizona" offers a fresh and unique view of bird life that is both personal and engaging. Not long after retiring from his practice as a medical doctor, Michael Whitt desired to publish a book on the birds that he and his wife, Barbara, had photographed on their property along the San Pedro River in southeast Arizona. With a sharp eye, excellent observational skills, and a keen intellect characteristic of those in his profession, Whitt gives us an intimate portrait of avian life backed by more than eighty years of wisdom and decades of close, astute observations in the outdoors.
