Book excerpt: FOURTH EDITION NOW AVAILABLE - Search ISBN: 1478194693 or see Author page (above) to Look Inside or to order. The Fourth Edition incorporates the revised Wetland Indicator Status classification of the National Wetland Plant List (June 2012); this replaces earlier lists developed by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, and is the new standard to be used in wetland delineation studies. A Great Lakes Wetland Flora (Third Edition) is the only comprehensive field guide to the vascular plants found in the wetlands of the Upper Midwest-the plants of bogs, fens, swamps, marshes, wet meadows, and low prairie-plus the aquatic plants of lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams. The Third Edition has been updated to incorporate conservation status changes and includes many new illustrations.The Flora's thoroughness, ease-of-use, and detailed drawings have made it a favorite reference with botanists, natural resource managers, environmental consultants, students, educators, or anyone simply wanting to learn more about these fascinating habitats. Contents* Complete coverage of aquatic and wetland plants of the Upper Midwest-Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, northern Illinois, and northern Indiana-with general applicability to surrounding areas (including the Dakotas, Iowa, Ohio and western Ontario).* Over 900 plant species in 114 plant families; each species described (including habitat and range information) and illustrated. * Descriptions of the major wetland types of the Great Lakes region.* Identification of plants of conservation concern in the region (state or federally endangered or threatened). Also included are U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service wetland status indicators. * Alphabetically arranged by plant family within four major plant groups-Ferns and Fern Allies, Conifers, Dicots, and Monocots-for quickly finding and identifying plants.* Easy-to-use keys to each plant family, genus, and species.

Book excerpt: Biology and Control of Aquatic Plants: A Best Management Practices Handbook is the fourth edition of a handbook produced by the not for profit Aquatic Ecosystem Restoration Foundation (AERF). The mission of the AERF is to support research and development which provides strategies and techniques for the environmentally and scientifically sound management, conservation and restoration of aquatic ecosystems. One way the Foundation accomplishes this mission is by producing this handbook to provide information to the public regarding the benefits of aquatic ecosystem conservation and aquatic plant management. The first, second and third editions of this handbook became some of the most widely consulted references in the aquatic plant management community. This fourth edition has been specifically designed with water resource managers, water management associations, homeowners and customers and operators of aquatic plant management companies and districts in mind. Our goal in preparing this handbook is to provide basic, scientifically sound information to assist decision-makers with their water management questions.
Download or read book The Biology of Aquatic and Wetland Plants written by Gary N. Ervin and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-04-26 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquatic plants play a critically important role in maintaining ecosystem health. They are natural biological filters in freshwater and estuarine wetlands; they contribute to the reproductive success of many organisms, some of which are harvested for food; they assist in flood control; and they are prominent elements in the aesthetics and recreational use of freshwater and estuarine habitats. Despite this globally recognized importance, wetlands have faced and continue to face threats from the encroachment of human activities. The Biology of Aquatic and Wetland Plants is a thorough and up-to-date textbook devoted to these plants and their interactions with the environment. The focus is on botanical diversity from the perspective of evolutionary relationships, emphasizing the role of evolution in shaping adaptations to the aquatic environment. By incorporating recent findings on the phylogeny of green plants, with special emphasis on the angiosperms, the text is broadly useful for courses in plant biology, physiology, and ecology. Additionally, a chapter on population biology and evolutionary ecology complements the evolutionary backdrop of hydrophyte biology by examining the details of speciation and applications of modern genetic approaches to aquatic plant conservation. Key Features • Synthesizes recent and seminal literature on aquatic and wetland plants • Emphasizes evolutionary history as a factor influencing adaptations to the wetland environment • Provides a global perspective on plant diversity and threats facing wetland ecosystems • Highlights research needs in the field of aquatic and wetland plant biology • Includes 280 figures, with more than 300 color photographs, and 41 tables to provide ease of access to important concepts and information
