Based on their extensive field experience of the region, the authors have assimilated a vast amount of knowledge to produce this book, which gives a detailed insight into the plant ecology of Socotra, designated as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2008.The book is divided into seven chapters. After a brief introduction and overviews of important abiotic features, various aspects of the vascular flora are presented in Chapter 4, together with accounts of the bryophyte and lichen flora. Ecology and adaptive strategies of the plants are dealt with in Chapter 5, and Chapter 6 gives a concise description of the main vegetation units. Finally, important management issues of the vegetation are discussed, an essential topic to ensure preservation of the natural heritage of the archipelago. | 出版日期 | Book 2012 | 关键词 | Conservation; Flora; Island biogeography; Socotra Archipelago; Vegetation ecology; Systematic Botany | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-4141-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-017-8459-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-4141-6Series ISSN 1875-1318 Series E-ISSN 1875-1326 | issn_series | 1875-1318 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2012 |
