Download or read book Evolutionary Biogeography of the Marine Algae of the North Atlantic written by David J. Garbary and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algal systematists, geologists and evolutionary biologists provide a synthesis of the evolutionary biogeography of red, brown, and green algae of the North Atlantic Ocean also considering their relationships with species and genera in the Arctic and Pacific Oceans as well as other subtropical and tropical seas. The history of the Atlantic Basin and its connections to other ocean basins is treated from the geological, paleontological and paleoclimatic perspective. This is contrasted with biogeographic analyses of marine animal systems and the role of plant/animal interactions in evolution. Some of the approaches include traditional systematic studies, cladistic analysis, the experimental evaluation of environment in establishing distribution limits and the application of molecular biology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip Tranter and three friends drove a Land Rover 6,000 miles overland from Scotland to Nuristan to explore some of the unknown Central Hindu Kush area. They set out to attempt the second ascent of the monstrous Koh-i-Krebek; to ascend if possible at least one other major unclimbed mountain and to map that previously unmapped terrain. In fact, as well as Krebek they climbed nine other major peaks, named another dozen, and established the existence of a dramatic rock and ice range which they called the Rum Mountains, and christened individually after the Hebridean peaks they resembled in shape and beauty. The story of the expedition is told with an infectious enthusiasm for the glory and challenge of these mysterious peaks.

A soldier in two world wars, a mariner, mountaineer and explorer who disappeared at the age of 79 on yet another expedition to the Antartic. Tilman was not well known in his day as he shunned publicity and sponsorship he climbed, as he sailed, as he lived, for the sheer joy of it. He was, however a compulsive letter writer and J.R.L. Anderson has made full use of these in his attempt to understand this remarkable man.

Book excerpt: Through a collection of nearly 200 photographs, combined with a selection of maps, illustrations and narrative, the book chronicles the exploits of the 1971 University of St Andrews expedition to the Cape Farewell region of Greenland.The main expedition base was established in the area between Tasermiut fjord and the lake, Taserssuaq. Exploration into the adjacent areas, including the infamous Qinguadalen, was through a series of climbing camps. The challenges of the terrain and the vagaries of the weather were overcome. More than 30 first ascents were made and most are illustrated in the book. The material presented combines a selection of detail from the original expedition report with photographs and personal accounts from expedition members.A prolonged stay in Nanortalik awaiting the arrival of their supplies and equipment, enabled the group to explore the local area, including a brief visit to the nearby island of Sermersoq. They were also able to join in and record the local celebrations for the 250th anniversary of the 1721 rediscovery of Greenland by Hans Egede.Details of canoeing trips, exploration of Viking sites and a summary of botanical survey findings complete the account. Also included, is a guide for finding further information on the exploration history and the travel and tourism opportunities in this fascinating area.
