This book was released on 2016-06-28 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relation of Desert Plants to Soil Moisture and to Evaporation Every observer of desert vegetation has had his attention drawn to the question of how certain plants of the arid regions are able to main tain a more or less active transpiration during long periods of absolute lack of precipitation, when the soil in which they are rooted becomes not only apparently air-dry but also attains exceedingly high tempera tures. It seemed that careful quantitative studies of the moisture con ditions in desert soil and desert atmosphere, and of the relation of these conditions to the transpiration and life of desert plants, might throw considerable light not only upon this problem of extreme xerophytism, but also upon the limitations of plant life in general. Just as the alpine summits of high mountains in all parts of the earth and the frozen tundras of the arctic regions exhibit vegetable life under temperature conditions which almost render it impossible, so the arid desert with its centimeters of annual rainfall and its meters of annual evaporation exhibits plant life under conditions of extreme dryness which similarly approach a limit to the very existence of such life. It is thus plausible to suppose that certain fundamental truths regarding the vital activities of plants may be more advantageously studied in the case of organisms existing under these extreme conditions than by confining attention to what are considered the more normal circumstances of life and growth. With the aid of a grant from the Carnegie Institution of Washington the writer was able to spend the summer of 1904 at the Desert Botanical Laboratory of that Institution at Tucson, Arizona, in carrying out a series of quantitative studies on desert plants. The results of these studies are embodied in the present paper. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During germination, the most resistant stage of the life cycle - the seed - changes to the most sensitive stage, namely the seedling. Therefore, in desert plant species seed dispersal and subsequent germination in the optimum time an place place are particularly critical parameters. Discussed here are the ways and means by which desert plants have adapted through the course of evolution to their extreme environment. Two such strategies which have evolved are a) plants with relatively large and protected seeds which germinate when the chance of seedling survival is high and the risk relatively low or b) those with an opportunistic strategy: minute seeds which germinate after low rainfall under high risk for seedling survival if additional rain does not follow. Most species adopt a combination of the two mechanisms. Species have adapted both genotypically and phenotypically, both aspects of which are also discussed in this thorough text. The reader is provided with a good understanding of the complex influences on each seed traced through from initial development to germination stage regarding germination preparation and subsequent survival.
Download or read book Land Surface Evaporation written by Thomas J. Schmugge and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General circulation model (GCM) experiments in the late 1970's indicated that the climate is sensitive to variations in evaporation at the land surface. Thus, in the context of climate modeling, it became important to develop techniques which would realistically estimate the evaporation flux on land. Land Surface Evaporation: Measurement and Parameterization discusses strategies for the use of experimental data in developing and testing parameterization schemes of the evaporation flux in GCM's. The book reviews state-of-the-art techniques, such as remote sensing, which measure evaporation fluxes over continental surfaces. It evaluates their relevance with respect to the various spatial and temporal scales of interest. This book will provide researchers in climatology, meteorology, hydrology and water management, and remote sensing with a thorough overview of current research in land surface evaporation. It will also give young scientists insight into surface processes.
