  • The Essential Tree Selection Guide : For Climate Resilience, Carbon Storage, Species Diversity and Other Ecosystem Benefits
    The Essential Tree Selection Guide : For Climate Resilience, Carbon Storage, Species Diversity and Other Ecosystem Benefits

    There has never been a better time to plant trees. As well as playing a vital role in the health of the natural world and of us humans, these essential life-giving plants also deliver a vast array of hidden benefits such as cooling shade, rainfall interception and carbon capture – but only if we plant the right tree in the right place. International tree expert Henrik Sjöman along with garden designer and passionate advocate for the environment Arit Anderson have created this visionary resource suitable for the world's temperate regions.It opens with a clear explanation of ecosystem services and how trees deliver them.Some trees excel at particular roles such as providing food for pollinators at times when it is scarce or filtering air pollution.Others have adapted in ways that allow them to cope with extreme conditions such as drought, low-nutrient soil and high winds. At the heart of the book is a unique A-Z Tree Directory representing more than 550 trees chosen for their ecosystem benefits, resilience and a host of other criteria that will ensure their continuing contribution to our future gardens and landscapes.A further quick-reference Tree Selection Table provides key attributes for each species at a glance. This important new tree selection guide marks a step change in approach that will lead to more trees reaching their full potential and a richer environment for future generations.

  • Species
    Species

    Bing and Ruth is the ever-evolving project helmed by New York composer David Moore. While on a surface level, 'Species' is an exploration of the sonic possibilities of the Farfisa organ, aided only by a clarinet and double bass (played respectively by founding members Jeremy Viner and Jeff Ratner), the title 'Species' is a nod to both humanity and humility - a devotion to the godly intuition with which we are all endowed, and the humbleness required of us to perceive it. It's also about suspended time and trance; not just a steady movement from A to B, but as something that flows, meanders and eddies, like water.

  • Building Rural Community Resilience Through Innovation and Entrepreneurship
    Building Rural Community Resilience Through Innovation and Entrepreneurship

    Drawing from empirical analyses, case studies, and a synthesis of best practices, this book explores how innovation manifests itself in rural places and how it contributes to entrepreneurial development and resilience.Innovation in rural places may come about as a result of new forms of collaboration; policies that leverage rural assets and address critical service or product gaps; novel strategies for accessing financial capital; infusion of arts into aspects of community life; and cultivation of networks that bridge entrepreneurs, organizations, and institutions.The chapters illustrate how a number of innovation-related characteristics relate to economic vibrancy in rural places such as a strong connection to the arts, adaptive and sustainable use of natural resources, value-chain integrated food systems, robust bridging social capital networks, creative leveraging of technology, and presence of innovation-focused entrepreneurs.Through exploration of these and other topics, this book will provide insights and best practices for rural community and economic development scholars and practitioners seeking to strengthen the rural innovation ecosystem.

  • How would Lamarck likely explain the diversity of species?

    Lamarck would likely explain the diversity of species through his theory of inheritance of acquired characteristics. He proposed that organisms could pass on traits that they acquired during their lifetime to their offspring. Lamarck believed that as organisms adapted to their environment, these acquired traits would be inherited by future generations, leading to the diversity of species we see today. This theory suggests that the environment plays a significant role in shaping the characteristics of species over time.

  • How would Lamarck and Darwin explain the diversity of species?

    Lamarck proposed that species evolve through the inheritance of acquired characteristics, meaning that individuals can develop new traits during their lifetime and pass them on to their offspring. This process leads to the diversity of species over time. On the other hand, Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection suggests that species evolve through the process of variation, competition, and adaptation to their environment. Those individuals with advantageous traits are more likely to survive and reproduce, leading to the diversity of species we see today.

  • Kangaroo species

    Kangaroos are marsupials native to Australia and are known for their powerful hind legs, large feet, and long tails. There are four main species of kangaroos: the red kangaroo, eastern grey kangaroo, western grey kangaroo, and antilopine kangaroo. Each species has its own unique characteristics and can be found in different regions of Australia. Kangaroos are herbivores and primarily feed on grasses, leaves, and shrubs.

  • 'Unicellular species'

    Unicellular species are organisms that consist of only a single cell. These organisms carry out all of the necessary functions for life within this single cell, including obtaining nutrients, reproducing, and responding to their environment. Examples of unicellular species include bacteria, archaea, and protists. Despite being simple in structure, unicellular species can be highly diverse and have adapted to thrive in a wide range of environments.

  • A Framework for Community Ecology : Species Pools, Filters and Traits
    A Framework for Community Ecology : Species Pools, Filters and Traits

    This book addresses an important problem in ecology: how are communities assembled from species pools?This pressing question underlies a broad array of practical problems in ecology and environmental science, including restoration of damaged landscapes, management of protected areas, and protection of threatened species.This book presents a simple logical structure for ecological assembly and addresses key areas including species pools, traits, environmental filters, and functional groups.It demonstrates the use of two predictive models (CATS and Traitspace) and consists of many wide-ranging examples including plants in deserts, wetlands, and forests, and communities of fish, amphibians, birds, mammals, and fungi. Global in scope, this volume ranges from the arid lands of North Africa, to forests in the Himalayas, to Amazonian floodplains.There is a strong focus on applications, particularly the twin challenges of conserving biodiversity and understanding community responses to climate change.

    There are several species of sheep, including the domestic sheep (Ovis aries), which is the most common species raised for its wool, meat, and milk. Other species of sheep include the bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis) and the mouflon (Ovis orientalis), among others.

  • 'Ara species'

    Ara species are a group of large, colorful parrots native to Central and South America. They are known for their vibrant plumage, long tails, and strong beaks. Ara species are highly intelligent and social birds, often forming strong bonds with their human caretakers. Unfortunately, many Ara species are threatened by habitat loss and illegal trapping for the pet trade, making conservation efforts crucial for their survival.

  • Unicellular species

    Unicellular species are organisms that consist of a single cell, as opposed to multicellular organisms that are made up of multiple cells. These single-celled organisms can carry out all the necessary functions for life within that one cell, including obtaining nutrients, reproducing, and responding to their environment. Examples of unicellular species include bacteria, archaea, protists, and some types of algae. Despite their simple structure, unicellular species play important roles in various ecosystems and can have significant impacts on the environment.
