Download or read book Geomorphic Analysis of River Systems written by Kirstie A. Fryirs and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-09-26 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filling a niche in the geomorphology teaching market, this introductory book is built around a 12 week course in fluvial geomorphology. ‘Reading the landscape’ entails making sense of what a riverscape looks like, how it works, how it has evolved over time, and how alterations to one part of a catchment may have secondary consequences elsewhere, over different timeframes. These place-based field analyses are framed within their topographic, climatic and environmental context. Issues and principles presented in the first part of this book provide foundational understandings that underpin the approach to reading the landscape that is presented in the second half of the book. In reading the landscape, detective-style investigations and interpretations are tied to theoretical and conceptual principles to generate catchment-specific analyses of river character, behaviour and evolution, including responses to human disturbance. This book has been constructed as an introductory text on river landscapes, providing a bridge and/or companion to quantitatively-framed or modelled approaches to landscape analysis that are addressed elsewhere. Key principles outlined in the book emphasise the importance of complexity, contingency and emergence in interpreting the character, behaviour and evolution of any given system. The target audience is second and third year undergraduate students in geomorphology, hydrology, earth science and environmental science, as well as river practitioners who use geomorphic understandings to guide scientific and/or management applications. The primary focus of Kirstie and Gary’s research and teaching entails the use of geomorphic principles as a tool with which to develop coherent scientific understandings of river systems, and the application of these understandings in management practice. Kirstie and Gary are co-developers of the River Styles® Framework and Short Course that is widely used in river management, decision-making and training.

Download or read book Flora of Australia written by Australian Biological Resources Study and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2004 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 55 contains an account of the largest family of lichens in Australia, the Parmeliaceae. This family, familiar to most people as the common grey or brown to yellowish green foliose lichens of rocks, soil and bark, has about 60 genera and 1000 species worldwide. Thirty-one genera and 395 species are recorded from Australia. The book has keys for identification of genera and species. Each species is fully described, with bibliographic information, a full Australian synonymy, notes on habitat and distribution, and a summary of its chemistry. A distribution map is provided for each taxon and many species are illustrated in colour. An innovation in this volume is the inclusion of a synoptic key to the genera. This volume provides an excellent modern account of a difficult family

Download or read book Australian Good Birding Guide NSW ACT written by Ted Wnorowski and published by Ted and Alex Wnorowski. This book was released on 2018-08-30 with total page 631 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first of a series of books describing exciting birdwatching locations in Australia. The NSW-ACT Guide is arguably the most comprehensive compendium of birding sites in the State available to date. Not only the standard, well-known locations are covered but also some interesting places known only to a few or newly discovered by ourselves. The book series is intended for both Australian and overseas birders. We hope it will become an essential field companion to a birding enthusiast. In today's time-poor society, the ability to maximise your bird finds in an unfamiliar area in a typically short vacation time available, should be a serious help. For each site, at the minimum, the access details, habitat description, site facilities and key avifauna are addressed. Most data is based on personal records, cross-checked and augmented with the verified sightings reported online. The book is divided into regions including greater Sydney, Hawkesbury, Hunter region, Illawarra, Southern Highlands, South-East NSW, Mid North Coast, Northern Rivers, Western Slopes and Tablelands, Riverina region, Central West NSW, Far West NSW and Australian Capital Territory. The book is richly illustrated with photographs of birds and bird habitats. Book 2: Australian Good Birding Guide: Tasmania Book 3: Australian Good Birding Guide: Victoria

Download or read book Advances in aquaculture hatchery technology written by S.J. Rowland and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-02-19 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freshwater fishes are one of the great natural resources of the world, but anthropogenic activities have adversely affected aquatic ecosystems and many species are threatened with extinction. Throughout the 1900s, the distribution and abundance of native freshwater fishes in inland and coastal drainages in southeastern Australia were significantly reduced, and there were extirpations of some populations. This chapter reviews these declines and the use of captive breeding and stocking programmes since the late 1970s to aid the recovery of threatened species, establish and maintain large recreational fisheries, and restore lost biodiversity. The successes of these programmes have been due to the development of best practices for broodfish management, artificial breeding, larval rearing, fingerling production and management of infectious diseases, and guidelines which minimise the effects of domestication, maintain genetic identity of stocked populations, and maximise genetic variation providing a basis for fitness and evolutionary potential of each species.
