The biological variety and variability of life on Earth is called biodiversity. It is generally a measure of variation at the genetic, species and ecosystem level. Some of the factors which influence biodiversity are altitude, soils, precipitation and temperature. Due to the warm climate and high primary productivity, terrestrial biodiversity is generally greater near the equator. The tropical forest ecosystem which has a rich biodiversity cov...

Biodiversity refers to the variation of life forms on earth at the genetic, species and ecosystem level. It varies widely across the globe and from region to region. It is dependent on abiotic characteristics of temperature, precipitation, altitude, etc. Biological diversity exists at various levels. These include taxonomic diversity, ecological diversity, morphological diversity and functional diversity. Ecology is a sub-field of biology that...

Biodiversity is a field that elucidates the rich spectrum of life that exists on Earth. There are great risks that global biodiversity faces at the moment, which are ecological disasters, habitat degradation, geographical isolation, environmental stress and the appearance of non-native invasive species. It is highly important to maintain species diversity and genetic diversity for the propagation of life on Earth. This book studies, analyses a...

Biogeography studies the distribution of species and ecosystems in different parts of the world. It can be further divided into paleobiogeography, systematic biogeography and evolutionary biogeography. It incorporates principles from different fields including physical geography, geology, botany and zoology. The fundamental concepts of biogeography include evolution, extinction, geodispersal and vicariance. There has been rapid progress in thi...

The study of protection of biodiversity is called conservation sciences. It is interdisciplinary in nature. This book elucidates new techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary approach for a better understanding of conservation science. It aims to provide its readers a broad spectrum of topics dealing with care, protection and conservation of species and ecosystem. The text highlights in detail the various processes by which the ...

The emphasis on biodiversity has increased in the past few decades. Biodiverse species occupy a vast portion of the earth's ecosystem. This book on biodiversity enrichment in a changing world discusses the strategies and programs adopted by organizations and projects around the world for diversity enhancement, wildlife conservation and forest management. Studies enumerating the ecological, rather than economic aspects emphasizes the changing i...

Using just six bass notes and six major chords, this book is written specifically for the beginners traditional "12-bass accordion, " but the pieces can also be played on more elaborate instruments. After just one page of technical notes, this book offers 27 easy solos.

Biodiversity is a diverse and dynamic area of study. Motivated by the growing requirement to classify the biological diversity frame of extensive, endemic and endangered species, as well as by the increasing chances to describe new species, the research of the evaluative and spatial dynamics is in constant execution. Logical overviews, biographic and phylogenic backgrounds, species composition and allocation in controlled areas are focal subje...

This book presents a comprehensive study regarding biodiversity, its conservation and utilization. It discusses the regulation and consumption of resources to meet human demands in different spheres varying from agriculture to wildlife and exhaustible to inexhaustible resources. The objective is to fulfill human necessities and the range of life is assessed according to the variety of the species that exist. Diversity is an essential feature o...

A research approach on biodiversity has been undertaken in this book. The biodiversity of plants, animals, fungi and microbes has been discussed in detail, along with biodiversity and its impact on mental health. The complexity of the association has been approached from various angles, taking into account the interventions at various stages. A scientific approach has been adopted in this book which exhibits the inter-connectivity of all the t...

Biogeography involves dealing with the study of varied life forms present on the face of the Earth. This book is a compilation of research works of more than 30 scientific experts on biogeography from across the globe. It intends to elaborate on spatial and temporal variation of biological assemblages in relation to landscape intricacy and environmental changes. This book adopts four major themes: bio-geographic theory and tests of ideas and c...

The book broadly covers agricultural aspects, socio-economic impacts and genetics. The complexity of the association has been approached from various angles, taking into account the interventions at various stages. A scientific approach has been adopted in this book which exhibits the inter-connectivity of all the three levels, emphasizing the need for conservation and protection of the systems if human existence is to continually benefit from...

This book provides an overview of current knowledge and discusses some of the unanswered questions at the forefront of research in biodiversity. Every ecosystem is an intricate organization of cautiously mixed life forms, a dynamic and primarily sensible system. Hence, their progressive decline may speed up climate change and vice versa, influencing flora and fauna composition and distribution, resulting in the loss of biodiversity. The effect...

Conservation biology is an essential element for sustaining the biodiversity of this planet. Conservation biology is also known as "crisis discipline." In today's scenario, the world is undergoing some rapid transformation, and science instructs us about research, management practices, technologies and policies that can help protect the environment's naturally-occurring biological diversity. Certain chapters of this book present well-researche...

Molecular ecology is an emerging field of study that focuses on crucial challenges of ecological and environmental conservation like assessment and protection of biodiversity and species, analysing behavioural ecology, etc. It involves the use of genetics and genomics for evaluating and addressing these problems. Some of the topics covered in this extensive book are cell biology, genetics, microbial population, microbial and environmental biot...

Scientists, ecologists and various agencies working for environmental conservation have been constantly monitoring and evaluating the present status of biodiversity of diverse living organisms. The main objective of this book is to focus on various protection and restoration techniques and measures for sustaining biodiversity such as information technology and its applications in environmental management, green technologies for environmental c...

Earth is home to a wide variety of species and all of them play a crucial part in maintaining equilibrium in their surrounding environment and respective biomes i.e., ecosystems. This book traces the progress of this field and highlights some of its key aspects such as environmental conservation, management and planning, environmental health and biodiversity, etc. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a be...

Biodiversity is the variety and variability of life forms present in different geographical regions. It is a result of different climatic patterns and geographic settings. Biological systems may range from micro to macro that is they can exist in a form as small as mitochondria and as big as rainforests. Conservation aims at protecting habitats, ecosystems and species to maintain ecological balance. This book strives to provide extensive infor...
