Download or read book Herbarium written by Barbara M. Thiers and published by Timber Press. This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A treasury like no other Since the 1500s, scientists have documented the plants and fungi that grew around them, organizing the specimens into collections. Known as herbaria, these archives helped give rise to botany as its own scientific endeavor. Herbarium is a fascinating enquiry into this unique field of plant biology, exploring how herbaria emerged and have changed over time, who promoted and contributed to them, and why they remain such an important source of data for their new role: understanding how the world’s flora is changing. Barbara Thiers, director of the William and Lynda Steere Herbarium at the New York Botanical Garden, also explains how recent innovations that allow us to see things at both the molecular level and on a global scale can be applied to herbaria specimens, helping us address some of the most critical problems facing the world today. At its heart, Herbarium is a compelling reminder of one of humanity’s better impulses: to save things—not just for ourselves, but for generations to come.

Download or read book Wild Science written by Helen P. Waudby and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2024-11-01 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What’s it like to study polar bears in the wild? How do you raise children among large carnivores? And how do you find a frog that no-one has seen for 40 years? From deserts to rainforests and even the polar Arctic, scientists venture into the field to collect, observe and study the world’s organisms and the environments they live in. But even with the best planning, unexpected weather, unpredictable animals and unforeseen encounters can occur. Wild Science: Unexpected Encounters When Working in Nature explores the precarious, hilarious and thought-provoking stories ‘behind the science’. It shows the value of these experiences, even when things don’t go right, and the importance of fieldwork for understanding our own place in the world.
