Morphodynamics

Morphodynamics is defined as the unique interaction among environment functional morphology developmental constraints phylogeny and time—all of which shape the evolution of life. These fabricational patterns and similarities owe their regularity not to a detailed genetic program but to extrinsic factors which may be mechanical chemical or biological in nature. These self-organizing mechanisms are the focus of Morphodynamics. Illustrated by numerous examples from across the biological spectrum this book embodies the foundation of noted paleontologist Adolf Seilacher’s thinking on the study of morphodynamics. It represents his unique approach of presenting paleontology from an ecological and constructional perspective rather than a purely taxonomic one. The hallmark of Seilacher’s storied career has been a constructional and functional focus. He begins by discussing the basic principles—form pattern formation ecology and evolution as well as the factors that override those processes. Next he examines how morphodynamic principles are implemented in various invertebrates including single-celled protists Ediacarans sponges coelenterates shelled organisms worms arthropods and echinoderms. The final chapter explores how morphogenetic principles may apply to clonal colonial organisms. Summarizing seventy years of research into the interactions of form function and evolution the book is copiously illustrated with the author’s own distinctive drawings and an abundance of photos. It provides a framework for readers to pose their own questions and sharpen their interpretive skills on this fascinating topic.

Growth and Decay of Coral Reefs Fifty Years of Learning

Growth and Decay of Coral Reefs: Fifty Years of Learning describes how coral reefs have alternately flourished and declined over the last 50 years and the dynamics of these changes. The study is based on recordings at 30 different locations along the Sudanese coast visited by the author between 1971 and 1973. Beyond the Red Sea's desert shores lie some of the richest and most diverse coral reefs on our planet. Over a thousand species of reef fishes matched by a similar abundance of living corals creating habitats scientists were only just beginning to understand. The complexity of the inter-relations was truly mesmerizing. A single intervention such as removal of a key species could cause the whole community to collapse. Healthy corals were transformed into green weed-smothered reefs accompanied by the loss of both corals and fish. Based on the author’s observations of how knowledge and perspectives have changed over the last 50 years this book highlights lessons learned from historical records that may help maintain and reestablish coral reefs in the years to come. Topics covered include: CORAL REEF FISH Fish surveys CORAL REEF PROFILES Coral growth rates Coral distribution Corals on 'Cousteau garage' CORAL THREATS Climate change Coral bleaching Coral diseases Coral sponges Terpios hoshinota Coral predators Coral urchins CORAL – ALGAE CORAL RESEARCH and more . | Growth and Decay of Coral Reefs Fifty Years of Learning

Insects and Society

Recommended in CHOICE February 2021 Insects are all around us outweighing humanity by 17 times. Many are nuisances; they compete with us for food and carry some of our most devastating diseases. Many common pests have been transported worldwide by humans. Yet some recent reports suggest dramatic declines in some important groups such as pollinators and detritivores. Should we care? Yes we should. Without insect pollinators we’d lose 35% of our global food production; without detritivores we would be buried in un-decayed refuse. Insects are also critical sources for nutritional medical and industrial products. A world without insects would seem a very different and unpleasant place. So why do insects inspire such fear and loathing? This concise full-color text challenges many entrenched perceptions about insect effects on our lives. Beginning with a summary of insect biology and ecology that affect their interactions with other organisms it goes on to describe the various positive and negative ways in which insects and humans interact. The final chapters describe factors that affect insect abundance and approaches to managing insects that balance their impacts. The first textbook to cater directly to those studying Insect and Society or Insect Ecology modules this book will also be fascinating reading for anyone interested in learning how insects affect human affairs and in applying more sustainable approaches to managing insects. This includes K-12 teachers undergraduate students amateur entomologists conservation practitioners environmentalists as well as natural resource managers land use planners and environmental policy makers. | Insects and Society

Handbook of Wood Chemistry and Wood Composites

Wood has played a major role throughout human history. Strong and versatile the earliest humans used wood to make shelters cook food construct tools build boats and make weapons. Recently scientists politicians and economists have renewed their interest in wood because of its unique properties aesthetics availability abundance and perhaps most important of all its renewability. However wood will not reach its highest use potential until we fully describe it understand the mechanisms that control its performance properties and finally are able to manipulate those properties to give us the desired performance we seek. The Handbook of Wood Chemistry and Wood Composites analyzes the chemical composition and physical properties of wood cellulose and its response to natural processes of degradation. It describes safe and effective chemical modifications to strengthen wood against biological chemical and mechanical degradation without using toxic leachable or corrosive chemicals. Expert researchers provide insightful analyses of the types of chemical modifications applied to polymer cell walls in wood. They emphasize the mechanisms of reaction involved and resulting changes in performance properties including modifications that increase water repellency fire retardancy and resistance to ultraviolet light heat moisture mold and other biological organisms. The text also explores modifications that increase mechanical strength such as lumen fill monomer polymer penetration and plasticization. The Handbook of Wood Chemistry and Wood Composites concludes with the latest applications such as adhesives geotextiles and sorbents and future trends in the use of wood-based composites in terms of sustainable agriculture biodegradability and recycling and economics. Incorporating decades of teaching experience the editor of this handbook is well-attuned to educational demands as well as industry standards and research trends.

Advanced Molecular Plant Breeding Meeting the Challenge of Food Security

This new volume Advanced Molecular Plant Breeding: Meeting the Challenge of Food Security aims to provide a better understanding of molecular plant breeding in order to boost the quality of agriculture produce to increase crop yields and to provide nutritious food for everyone by 2050 when the global population is expected to reach a new height of about 10 billion. The challenge to provide quality food for such an increased population will be exacerbated by the depletion of natural resources and by shrinking arable land areas. However scientists believe the challenge can be met by implementing new and improved techniques of quantitative trait inheritance in plant breeding. Integrating genomics and molecular biology into appropriate tools and methodologies can help to create genetically engineered plants such as by using biotic and abiotic stress tolerance molecular markers ‘-omics’ technology and genome editing. The milestone of whole genome sequencing from Arabidopsis to rice has opened the door to a new era of functional genomics which aims to determine the functions of all the genes identified in their genomes which will help in the improvement of crop species qualitatively and quantitatively in order to meet the ongoing challenges of doubling world food production by 2050. This important volume provides recent knowledge of advanced plant breeding tools researchers teachers graduate and post-graduate students in plant sciences and those in plant biotechnology applied botany agricultural sciences plant genetics and molecular biology. The contributors to this book were selected from a wide and diverse range of institutions. They provide an abundance of new research and knowledge on advanced plant breeding tools and techniques. | Advanced Molecular Plant Breeding Meeting the Challenge of Food Security
