Experimental Geographical Ecology
Author: Erland G. Kolomyts
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527586650
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 685
Book Description
This book sets out a paradigm of experimental geographical ecology and its core—landscape ecology—providing a number of empirical statistical models and ecological geographical concepts developed on the basis of these. It highlights the mechanisms of formation of regional- and local-level landscape-ecological systems, their natural and anthropogenic dynamics, and their evolutionary trends. It presents numerical methods of making landscape-ecological forecasts and assessing forest sustainability, and provides quantitative estimates of local and regional biotic regulation of the carbon cycle according to the scenarios of modern temperature growth and mitigation of warming, set out by the Paris (2015) Agreement on Climate Change. As such, the book will be a useful source of reference for field research, statistical and cartographic processing of the obtained data, mathematical modeling, geoecological interpretation of results, and the creation of theoretical schemes of geosystem analysis. It will appeal to specialists in the fields of geographical ecology, landscape-ecological modeling, and environmental forecasting.

Pages : 50
Book Description
Did your readers wait until the last minute to get started? No problem. Each experiment in this book follows the scientific method and can be completed in an hour or less. Readers make a climatogram for a city in the grasslands, experiment to find out why grasslands in the United States have seasons and find out how a prairie wind affects the evaporation of water. Experiments also include ideas for science fair projects in case readers have extra time.

Leaving Footprints in the Taiga
Author: Donatas Brandišauskas
Publisher: Studies in the Circumpolar Nor
ISBN: 9781785332388
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
Nowhere have recent environmental and social changes been more pronounced than in post-Soviet Siberia. Donatas Brandisauskas probes the strategies that Orochen reindeer herders of southeastern Siberia have developed to navigate these changes. "Catching luck" is one such strategy that plays a central role in Orochen cosmology -- luck implies a vernacular theory of causality based on active interactions of humans, non-humans, material objects, and places. Brandisauskas describes in rich details the skills, knowledge, ritual practices, storytelling, and movements that enable the Orochen to "catch luck" (or not, sometimes), to navigate times of change and upheaval.
