  • Biotectonics of Neotropical Transition Zones

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book offers an up-to-date review and synthesis of the role of tectonics in Neotropical bioregionalisation, in particular transition zones. The main questions are "What are transition zones?", "How would we identify them?" and, "What are the tectonic drivers of transition zones?" These questions are pertinent as they may reveal a new transition zone within the Caribbean (Antillean sub-region), ... Leer más

  • Biotectonics

    Tectonics as the Driver of Bioregionalisation

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Tectonic plates are constantly moving, either crashing into one another creating a mosaic of mountains and shallow seas, or tearing apart and isolating large swathes of land. In both cases plate tectonics separates populations leading to the evolution of biota. Tectonics is also responsible for the destruction life, for instance when large coral reefs or shallow seas are compressed to form ... Leer más

  • Tewkesbury Walks

    An Exploration of Biogeography and Evolution

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The book is composed of eight chapters, each of which are organised as walks around the Tewkesbury (UK) countryside, which move from the specific to increasingly broader ideas. So, the MS starts with an individual’s relationship to their environment (Avon and Severn Valleys Loop) that leads to a description of conservation issues at local, national and international levels, and ultimately to a ...

  • Cold-Water Corals

    The Biology and Geology of Deep-Sea Coral Habitats

    There are more coral species in deep, cold-waters than in tropical coral reefs. This broad-ranging treatment is the first to synthesise current understanding of all types of cold-water coral, covering their ecology, biology, palaeontology and geology. Beginning with a history of research in the field, the authors describe the approaches needed to study corals in the deep sea. They consider coral ... Leer más

  • Coastal Wetlands

    An Integrated Ecosystem Approach

    Coastal wetlands are under a great deal of pressure from the dual forces of rising sea level and the intervention of human populations both along the estuary and in the river catchment. Direct impacts include the destruction or degradation of wetlands from land reclamation and infrastructures. Indirect impacts derive from the discharge of pollutants, changes in river flows and sediment supplies, ... Leer más

  • Seafloor Geomorphology as Benthic Habitat

    GeoHAB Atlas of Seafloor Geomorphic Features and Benthic Habitats

    Edición de Peter Harris, Elaine Baker ...
    The conservation of marine benthic biodiversity is a recognised goal of a number of national and international programs such as the United Nations Convention on Biodiversity (CBD). In order to attain this goal, information is needed about the distribution of life in the ocean so that spatial conservation measures such as marine protected areas (MPAs) can be designed to maximise protection within ...

  • Biogeography of Australasia

    A Molecular Analysis

    de Michael Heads ...
    Over the last decade, molecular studies carried out on the Australasian biota have revealed a new world of organic structure that exists from submicroscopic to continental scale. Furthermore, in studies of global biogeography and evolution, DNA sequencing has shown that many large groups, such as flowering plants, passerine birds and squamates, have their basal components in this area. Using ... Leer más
