Download or read book Panbiogeography written by Robin C. Craw and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1999-04-15 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biogeography is a diverse subject, traditionally focusing on the distribution of plants and animals at different taxonomic levels, past and present. Modern biogeography also puts emphasis on the ecological character of the world vegetation types, and on the evolving relationship between humans and their environment. Panbiogeography describes a new synthesis of sciences of plant and animal distribution. The book emphasizes that the geographical patterns of animal and plant distribution contribute directly to the understanding and interpretation of evolutionary history. Geographic location is reintroduced as a critical element of both biogeography and evolutionary biology. The authors present chapters exploring the roles of geology, ecology, evolution in panbiogeographic theory, and introduce new methods, modes of classification, and ways of measuring biodiversity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Molecular Panbiogeography of the Tropics' is an alternative view of distributional history in which groups are older than suggested by fossils and fossil-calibrated molecular clocks. It discusses possible causes for the endemism of high-level taxa in tropical America and Madagascar.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hampered by a confusing plethora of approaches and methods, biogeography is often treated as an adjunct to other areas of study. The first book to fully define this rapidly emerging subdiscipline, Biogeography in a Changing World elucidates the principles of biogeography and paves the way for its evolution into a stand-alone field.

Download or read book Gondwana and Tethys written by Michael Geoffrey Audley-Charles and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1988 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is concerned with the geological history of the ancient supercontinent known as Gondwana and the former ocean called Tethys, which lay to the north of Gondwana in a region extending through what is now southern Europe, the Middle East, and the Himalayas. The continental movements that took place in this region from the late Palaeozoic onwards are now known to be much more complicated than was previously thought. Evidence bearing on these problems is presented here from a wide variety of disciplines: tectonics, palaeomagnetic studies, stratigraphy, and palaeogeography.

Download or read book Phylogeography of California written by Kristina A. Schierenbeck and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2014-08-26 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phylogeography of California examines the evolution of a variety of taxa—ancient and recent, native and migratory—to elucidate evolutionary events both major and minor that shaped the distribution, radiation, and speciation of the biota of California. The book also interprets evolutionary history in a geological context and reviews new and emerging phylogeographic patterns. Focusing on a region that is defined by physical and political boundaries, Kristina A. Schierenbeck provides a phylogeographic survey of California’s diverse flora and fauna according to their major organismal groups. Life history and ecological characteristics, which play prominent roles in the various outcomes for respective clades, are also considered throughout the work. Supporting scholars and researchers who study evolutionary diversification, the book analyzes research that helps assess one of the major challenges in phylogeographic studies: understanding changes in population structures shaped by geological and geographical processes. California is one of only twenty-five acknowledged biological hotspots worldwide, and the phylogeographic history of the state can be extrapolated to study other regions in western North America. Further consideration is given to implications for conservation, recommendations concerning the biogeographic provinces that roughly define the state of California, and predictions related to climate change.
