  • Landscape Erosion and Evolution Modeling

    Edited by Russell S. Harmon, William W. Doe III ...
    Landscapes are characterized by a wide variation, both spatially and temporally, of tolerance and response to natural processes and anthropogenic stress. These tolerances and responses can be analyzed through individual landscape parameters, such as soils, vegetation, water, etc., or holistically through ecosystem or watershed studies. However, such approaches are both time consuming and costly. ... Read more

  • Rangeland Desertification

    Edited by Olafur Arnalds, Steve Archer ...
    Series Book 19 - Advances in Vegetation Science
    Desertification has occurred worldwide. The biophysical and socio-economic complexity of this phenomenon has challenged our ability to categorize, inventory, monitor and repair the condition of degraded lands. One of the most important distinctions to be made in relation to land degradation is between cultivated land used for annual crop production and `rangelands'. Grazing by free-roaming ... Read more
