  • Rangeland Desertification

    Edición de Olafur Arnalds, Steve Archer ...
    Series Libro 19 - Advances in Vegetation Science
    Desertification has occurred worldwide. The biophysical and socio-economic complexity of this phenomenon has challenged our ability to categorize, inventory, monitor and repair the condition of degraded lands. One of the most important distinctions to be made in relation to land degradation is between cultivated land used for annual crop production and `rangelands'. Grazing by free-roaming ... Leer más
