Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wildland Shrubs, Their Biology and Utilization: An International Symposium, Utah State University, Logan, Utah, July 1971 In the past, arid and semiarid regions were defined on the basis of climatic factors alone (koppen 1923; Mathews 1931; Lang 1920; de Martonne 1905; Thornthwaite 1948; Transeau 1905; Emberger 1930; Gorczynski 1943; Stenz 1946; Boyko accord ingly, dpen's world map included Thar and Rajasthan under desert climate and the surrounding portion that extends up to Cutch and Gujarat, and certain parts of Madras are included under Steppe climate. However, since vegetation is the result of the response of plants to many variables of the climatic factors, no single factor can characterize deserts or arid and semiarid regions. Pramanik, Hariharan, and Ghose (1952) defined deserts or arid regions of India as areas having rainfall of 10 inches or less and a mean annual diurnal temperature range of 24° F. Or more; they defined semiarid regions as areas having rainfall ranging from 10 to 20 inches and an annual diurnal temperature range of 18° F. Or more. However, a correlation of climate and vegetation led Bharucha (1955) to retain as the limit of the arid zone the 10 inches isohyet, while the limit of the semiarid zone at the 30 inches isohyet. On the basis of these criteria as well as those of Thornthwaite the areas of arid and semi arid zones in India total sq. Km. And sq. Km respectively (table this excludes the cold desert of Jammu and Kashmir State, which contains sq. Km. Of arid and sq. Km. Of semiarid areas (krishnan Figure 1 gives the distribution and delimitation of these zones. In the North, next to Rajasthan, Gujarat has the largest area within the arid zone. In South India, the arid region is mainly confined to a portion of Rayalaseema region in Andhra Pradesh (fig. 1) and adjoining parts of Mysore. Of the semiarid zone, 59 percent is situated in peninsular India. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 53 papers in this proceedings include a section celebrating the 25-year anniversary of the Shrub Sciences Laboratory (4 papers), three sections devoted to themes, genetics, and biodiversity (12 papers), disturbance ecology and biodiversity (14 papers), ecophysiology (13 papers), community ecology (9 papers), and field trip section (1 paper). The anniversary session papers emphasized the productivity and history of the Shrub Sciences Laboratory, 100 years of genetics, plant materials development for wildland shrub ecosystems, and current challenges in management and research in wildland shrub ecosystems. The papers in each of the thematic science sessions were centered on wildland shrub ecosystems. The field trip featured the genetics and ecology of chenopod shrublands of east-central Utah. The papers were presented at the 11th Wildland Shrub Symposium: Shrubland Ecosystem Genetics and Biodiversity held at the Brigham Young University Conference Center, Provo, UT, June 13-15, 2000.
