دانلود کتاب Recent Dynamics of the Mediterranean Vegetation and Landscape

The Mediterranean region has been shaped by human activity and maintained by traditional practices of land use for centuries.  This has affected the distribution of plants and the landscape, which can be considered as part of the European cultural landscape.  This book details the rapid changes that have taken place in the vegetation of the Mediterranean in the last half-century, a period in which major socio-economic development greatly affected the cultural and physical landscape.Content: Chapter 1 Large?Scale Post?Glacial Distribution of Vegetation Structures in the Mediterranean Region (pages 1–12): Professor Emeritus Pierre QuezelChapter 2 Forest History in the Mediterranean Region (pages 13–20): Gaetano Di Pasquale, Paolo Di Martino and Stefano MazzoleniChapter 3 Forest Cover Changes in the Maghreb Countries with Special Reference to Morocco (pages 21–31): Mohamed RejdaliChapter 4 Long?Term Observation of Mediterranean Ecosystems with Satellite Remote Sensing (pages 33–43): Joachim Hill, Patrick Hostert and Achim RoderChapter 5 Landscape Dynamics in a Semi?Arid Mediterranean Catchment (SE Spain) (pages 45–56): Andreu Bonet, Juan Bellot and Juan PenaChapter 6 Recent Landscape Evolution in Dehesa Woodlands of Western Spain (pages 57–72): P.
