Nearly one-third of the land area on our planet is classified as
arid or desert. Therefore, an understanding of the dynamics of such
arid ecosystems is essential to managing those systems in a way
that sustains human populations. This second edition of Ecology of
Desert Systems provides a clear, extensive guide to the complex
interactions involved in these areas. This book details the
relationships between abiotic and biotic environments of desert
ecosystems, demonstrating to readers how these interactions drive
ecological processes. These include plant growth and animal
reproductive success, the spatial and temporal distribution of
vegetation and animals, and the influence of invasive species and
anthropogenic climate change specific to arid systems. Drawing on
the extensive experience of its expert authors, Ecology of Desert
Systems is an essential guide to arid ecosystems for students
looking for an overview of the field, researchers keen to learn how
their work fits in to the overall picture, and those involved with
environmental management of desert areas.
