内容説明
This is the second edition of this advanced textbook and the author aims to give a complete perspective on tropical rain forests. Major topics discussed in this edition are: the ecology and niche differentiation of animals and the effects on them of logging, silviculture, national practices, and the rationale behind the swing to polycyclic systems, biomass and productivity studies, nutrients and their cycling, species richness and species evolution and breeding systems. Other new material concerns Tertiary and Quaternary history, tree architecture, seasonality of flowering and fruiting, seed dormancy, mangrove forests, variation within rain forest communities, man's increased impact and the current state of conservation, and studies on secondary succession. The chapter on the soils in the forest environment is by C.P. Burnham and the work is intended to be of value to third year undergraduates upward s.
