It is unique in its coverage of the hows and whys of dynamics (changes) in the major types of vegetation occurring on southwestern mountains and plateaus. It explains the drivers and processes of change, describes historical changes and provides conceptual models that diagrammatically illustrate past, present, and potential future changes. All major types of vegetation are covered: spruce-fir, mixed conifer, and ponderosa pine forests, pinyon-juniper vegetation, subalpine-montane grassland, and Gambel oak and interior chaparral shrublands. The focus is on vegetation that is relatively undisturbed, i.e., in natural and near-natural condition, and how it responds to natural disturbances such as fire and drought, as well as to anthropogenic disturbances such as fire exclusion and invasive species | 出版日期 | Book 2013 | 关键词 | American Southwest; Conceptual models; Forests; Grassland and Shrublands; Vegetation dynamics | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-6149-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-007-9704-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-6149-0Series ISSN 1875-1318 Series E-ISSN 1875-1326 | issn_series | 1875-1318 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2013 |
