It covers the two major types of grassland biomes: the temperate grasslands (such as the North American prairie), and the tropical grassland (e.g. the African savanna), examining all aspects that define these biomes, including: vegetation, geographical distribution, challenges posed by the environment, adaptation of the plants and animals to the environment, and conservation efforts. Maps, photos, diagrams, drawings, and tables accompany the text, as do sidebars that highlight habitats, species, and ecological relationships. The volume includes a bibliography of accessible resources for further research. 000331292 650_0 $$aGrassland ecology. 000331292 650_0 $$aGrasslands. 000331292 85200 $$bgen$$hQH541.5.P7$$iW66$$i2008 000331292 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:331292$$pGLOBAL_SET 000331292 980__ $$aBIB 000331292 980__ $$aBOOK
