Download or read book Biogeography of Freshwater Algae written by Jørgen Kristiansen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on a workshop on biogeography of freshwater algae held during the Fifth International Phycological Congress in China 1994. A group of outstanding specialists covering widely different approaches to the subject have been brought together, and this collection of their contributions forms a unique volume: there is no other book on the subject. It thus fills an evident gap in the phycological literature, and will be of major interest to researchers and teachers within phycology, limnology, and evolutionary biology. However, it may also be useful in courses for advanced students.
Download or read book Freshwater Dinoflagellates of North America written by Susan Carty and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2014-08-02 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dinoflagellates are common unicellular organisms found in all types of aquatic ecosystems and are important contributors to freshwater ecosystems as significant primary producers of biomass. Despite increasing interest in the biology of living and fossil dinoflagellates, there has been no compilation of dinoflagellate species found in North America since 1934, and no keys to species.In Freshwater Dinoflagellates of North America, Susan Carty provides a much-needed taxonomic guide covering Canada, the United States, Mexico, all of Central America, the Caribbean, and Greenland. Features of the book include:• identification of dinoflagellate species, • distribution maps of species, • ecological and morphological keys to genera, • key to species within genus, • lists of references by location, • glossary, and • an extensive illustration program.Following an introductory section on the biology, morphology, and ecology of freshwater dinoflagellates, the species are presented in a field guide format with distribution maps, written descriptions emphasizing notable features, line drawings, and black-and-white and color micrographs.

Download or read book Biogeography and Ecology in Antarctica written by J. van Mieghem and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 825 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the third in aseries of publications devoted to the biogeographieal and ecological research in the Southern Hemisphere, published in the "Monographiae Biologicae". After dealing with Australia (vol. VIII) and Southern Africa (Vol. XIV) it was thought essential to include Antarctiea in this series. Ever since the expedition of the "Belgiea" made the first suc cessful wintering within the antarctie circle in 1898 and brought back a very rieh harvest of scientific data, Belgium kept a vivid interest in Antarctiea and took an active part in the modern and international exploration of this vast continent. As part of their programs for the International Geophysieal Year (I. G. Y. ) twelve nations established permanent or semi-permanent bases on the Antarctie Continent or on subantarctie islands. Thus a new era of vast and free international scientific collaboration in the Antarctie was opened and it culminated in the formulation and the signing of the Antarctic Treaty (Washington 1959). It was recognized and accepted that "Antarctiea" shall be used for peaceful purposes only and "Freedom of scientific investigation in Antarctiea and coopera tion toward that end, as applied during the I. G. Y. , shall continue . . " In order to organize this collaboration e. g. by full exchange of programs and resuIts a "Special Committee on Antarctie Research" (S. C. A. R. ) was founded in 1957.

Download or read book Wild Varanger written by Jörg Hemmer and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-07-25 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Varanger, Norway's largest peninsula, captivates visitors with its breathtaking Arctic landscapes and surprisingly rich wildlife. Biologist and nature photographer Jörg Hemmer takes the reader on a journey through barren tundra, vast highlands and lush birch forests to Caribbean beaches and the breathtakingly rugged coastline of the Arctic Ocean. With over 140 inspiring photographs, some in large format, the author describes the breeding biology of seabirds, the courtship rituals of ruffs and the hunting strategies of gyrfalcons. He shows how plants and animals have adapted to the cold climate and how people cope with the challenges of life on the northern edge of Europe. Two new chapters have been added to the second edition. One deals with the history of the Barents Sea region. The other tries to shed light on where the indigenous Sami people came from and how they developed reindeer husbandry. Clear and concise, this book is a passionate guide to Europe's outpost on the Arctic Ocean.
