Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Distribution and Physical, and Past-Geological Relations of British North American Plants The species referable to this group, and some of which are confined to Ontario, have, in general, in the United States, a range from Western New England to Wisconsin a stretch of country in breadth about similar to that of Ontario. They occur chiefly west of the Appalachian chain, and do not appear to cross from the forest lands of Wis consm into the prairie country of Minnesota and Dakota. Their northward and northeastward range in Canada is probably limited by the colder climate. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book On the Geographic Distribution and Ecological Relations of the Bog Plant Societies of North America Classic Reprint written by Edgar Nelson Transeau and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-12 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Geographic Distribution and Ecological Relations of the Bog Plant Societies of North America The preservation of the bog societies in poorly drained situa tions down to the present time seems to be due (1) to the lower temperatures prevailing there, (2) to the sterile nature of the sub stratum, (3) to the completeness with which the substratum is occupied by the bog plants, and (4) to the fact that most bog habitats are associated with lakes, whose basins must be entirely filled with debris, before the' drainage conditions will be naturally improved and made more favorable for the coming in of other plant societies. To account for the xerophytic character of many of the bog plants, experiments now being carried on seem to indicate that differences of temperature between substratum and air is ade quate. But the presence in many of our bog habitats of swamp species which show no xerophytic adaptations suggests that such xerophytic structures may be unnecessary under present con ditions in this region.

Download or read book Annals of the Former World written by John McPhee and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2000-06-15 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pulitzer Prize-winning view of the continent, across the fortieth parallel and down through 4.6 billion years Twenty years ago, when John McPhee began his journeys back and forth across the United States, he planned to describe a cross section of North America at about the fortieth parallel and, in the process, come to an understanding not only of the science but of the style of the geologists he traveled with. The structure of the book never changed, but its breadth caused him to complete it in stages, under the overall title Annals of the Former World. Like the terrain it covers, Annals of the Former World tells a multilayered tale, and the reader may choose one of many paths through it. As clearly and succinctly written as it is profoundly informed, this is our finest popular survey of geology and a masterpiece of modern nonfiction. Annals of the Former World is the winner of the 1999 Pulitzer Prize for Nonfiction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foundations of Biogeography provides facsimile reprints of seventy-two works that have proven fundamental to the development of the field. From classics by Georges-Louis LeClerc Compte de Buffon, Alexander von Humboldt, and Charles Darwin to equally seminal contributions by Ernst Mayr, Robert MacArthur, and E. O. Wilson, these papers and book excerpts not only reveal biogeography's historical roots but also trace its theoretical and empirical development. Selected and introduced by leading biogeographers, the articles cover a wide variety of taxonomic groups, habitat types, and geographic regions. Foundations of Biogeography will be an ideal introduction to the field for beginning students and an essential reference for established scholars of biogeography, ecology, and evolution.

Download or read book Essay on the Geography of Plants written by Alexander von Humboldt and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-07-15 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legacy of Alexander von Humboldt (1769–1859) looms large over the natural sciences. His 1799–1804 research expedition to Central and South America with botanist Aimé Bonpland set the course for the great scientific surveys of the nineteenth century, and inspired such essayists and artists as Emerson, Goethe, Thoreau, Poe, and Church. The chronicles of the expedition were published in Paris after Humboldt’s return, and first among them was the 1807 “Essay on the Geography of Plants.” Among the most cited writings in natural history, after the works of Darwin and Wallace, this work appears here for the first time in a complete English-language translation. Covering far more than its title implies, it represents the first articulation of an integrative “science of the earth, ” encompassing most of today’s environmental sciences. Ecologist Stephen T. Jackson introduces the treatise and explains its enduring significance two centuries after its publication.
