Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Forests of the Hawaiian Islands On the island of Oahu the algaroba forest, covering densely about acres, extends in a narrow, almost continuous belt along the south and west coasts. In this situation it is fully protected from the northeast trade winds, which blow with great regularity from March to November - exposure to which it can not endure. The young trees are now growing in great numbers as high as feet above the sea. It is supposed by some people that algaroba is able to grow at this eleva tion only by gradual adaptation. Starting at sea level, the trees were at first acclimated Only to an elevation of a few hundred feet, but successive generations growing higher and higher up the slopes have at last produced trees which are able to grow at the altitude named. Indeed, since the trees now found at feet are all young and thrifty, it seems probable that they will extend much farther up the mountain slopes than they have yet done. On the other islands the algaroba occupies the same relative position, reaching up the dry slopes to an elevation of several hundred feet. The land which it has taken possession of is usually so stony, arid, and precipitous as to be utterly worthless for other purposes. There fore the advent of this tree is generally welcomed by the landowner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Hawaiian Plant Life written by Robert J. Gustafson and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2014-10-31 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hawaiian Plant Life has been written with both the layperson and professional interested in Hawai‘i’s natural history and flora in mind. In addition to significant text describing landforms and vegetation, the evolution of Hawaiian flora, and the conservation of native species, the book includes almost 875 color photographs illustrating nearly two-thirds of native Hawaiian plant species as well as a concise description of each genus and species shown. The work can be used either as a stand-alone reference or as a companion to the two-volume Manual of the Flowering Plants of Hawai‘i. Learning more about threatened and endangered plants is essential to conserving them, and there is no more endangered flora in the world today than that of the Hawaiian Islands. Striking species complexes such as the silverswords and the remarkable lobeliads represent unique stories of adaptive radiation that make the Hawai‘i a living laboratory for evolution. Public appreciation for Hawaiian biodiversity requires outreach and education that will determine the future conservation of this rich heritage, and Hawaiian Plant Life has been designed to help fill that need.

Download or read book Conservation Biology of Hawaiian Forest Birds written by Thane K. Pratt and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hawaii’s forest bird community is the most insular and most endangered in the world and serves as a case study for threatened species globally. Ten have disappeared in the past thirty years, nine are critically endangered, and even common species are currently in decline. Thane K. Pratt, his coeditors, and collaborators, all leaders in their field, describe the research and conservation efforts over the past thirty years to save Hawaii’s forest birds. They also offer the most comprehensive look at the reasons for these extinctions and attempts to overcome them in the future. Among the topics covered in this book are trends in bird populations, environmental and genetic factors limiting population size, avian diseases, predators, and competing alien bird species. Color plates by award-winning local photographer Jack Jeffrey illustrate all living species discussed or described.
