Biomes of the Southern Hemisphere

Viac o knihe

Focusing on biome patterns in the Southern Hemisphere, this book presents a critical evaluation and revision of Heinrich Walter's zonobiome system, addressing the bioclimatic imbalance between the Hemispheres. It introduces a new zonobiome framework that accounts for geographic peculiarities, serving as a valuable tool for global nature-resource survey and conservation. The work highlights all zonal biomes, discusses challenges in understanding their origins and structure, and includes extensive original data from bioclimatic research and vegetation mapping.
