Over the last decade, the field of plant ecology has significantly
developed and expanded, especially in research concerning the herb
layer and ground vegetation of forests. This revised second edition
of The Herbaceous Layer in Forests of Eastern North America
accounts for that growth, presenting research that approaches the
ecology of the herb layer of forests from a variety of disciplines
and perspectives. The book synthesizes the research of top
ecologists and biologists on herbaceous layer structure,
composition, and dynamics of a variety of forest ecosystem types in
eastern North America. The 2003 first edition of The Herbaceous
Layer in Forests of Eastern North America was praised for
containing the most extensive listing of herb-layer literature in
existence. This second edition brings this material up to date,
revised to include current research and data. The book incorporates
quantitative data to support analyses that was previously
unavailable during the publication of the first edition. Also
featured are six entirely new chapters, focused on the response of
the herbaceous layer to a wide variety of natural and anthropogenic
disturbances. Building on the over 1,200 references and sources of
the first edition, the second edition of The Herbaceous Layer in
Forests of Eastern North America is an invaluable resource for
plant ecologists, forest ecologists, and conservationists.
