With large-scale, global declines in many species of plants and
animals and other disruptions such as climate change and
urbanization, we must learn how humans and other species can
coexist with one another. In a case study of urban biodiversity,
Erik Kiviat and Kristi MacDonald present two decades of data and
assessment of the habitats and biota of the New Jersey Meadowlands.
Urban Biodiversity: The Natural History of New Jersey Meadowlands
documents the mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish,
butterflies, bees, dragonflies, seed plants, mosses, and lichens of
the Meadowlands region and the patterns of their occurrence. The
work records the natural history of an urban-industrial region,
helping decision makers foster the biodiversity that thrives in
cities and giving planners tools to reduce the biological
degradation that occurs with urbanization.
