Описание: In Rock | Water | Life Lesley Green examines the interwoven realities of inequality, racism, colonialism, and environmental destruction in South Africa, calling for environmental research and governance to transition to an ecopolitical approach that could address South Africa's history of racial oppression and environmental exploitation. Green analyzes conflicting accounts of nature in environmental sciences that claim neutrality amid ongoing struggles for land restitution and environmental justice. Offering in-depth studies of environmental conflict in contemporary South Africa, Green addresses the history of contested water access in Cape Town; struggles over natural gas fracking in the Karoo; debates about decolonizing science; the potential for a politics of soil in the call for land restitution; urban baboon management; and the consequences of sending sewage to urban oceans.

This book aims at filling a gap in the scientific literature by showing the important roles of, and some of the latest knowledge acquired on, the world's small carnivores. Small Carnivores brings together contributions dealing with several aspects of small carnivore evolution, ecology, behavior, and conservation biology. While several recent books have focused on restricted taxa of small carnivores, this volume deals with a wide range of species belonging to numerous families. The species of interest predominantly include badgers, martens, otters and allies (Mustelidae), civets, genets and allies (Viverridae), mongooses (Herpestidae), raccoons (Procyonidae), and skunks (Mephitidae). This book contains a series of reviews dealing with systematics, biogeography, ecomorphology, ecology and conservation issues. The book also contains original research papers bringing new insights into a wide range of disciplines, including morphological studies, movement ecology, disease dynamics, and interspecific interactions.

Описание: Soils have been called the most complex microbial ecosystems on Earth. A single gram of soil can harbor millions of microbial cells and thousands of species. However, certain soil environments, such as those experiencing dramatic change exposing new initial soils or that are limited in precipitation, limit the number of species able to survive in these systems. In this respect, these environments offer unparalleled opportunities to uncover the factors that control the development and maintenance of complex microbial ecosystems. This book collects chapters that discuss the abiotic factors that structure arid and initial soil communities as well as the diversity and structure of the biological communities in these soils from viruses to plants.
