This is the first work to present a contemporary survey and analysis of the special character and value of the subtropical vegetation of southwestern China. In addition, the author also considers present day vegetation in the context of geological events and evolution, and with reference to ecological factors and human activities. The author has conducted extensive field work in the region and the book benefits from her deep and sophisticated understanding of how vegetation dynamics evolve, how plants persist, and how plant diversity has changed over time and space in the Yunnan region. Included are comparisons and links with similar systems around the world. The book provides a clear, concise account of the patterns and processes surrounding the subtropical vegetation of southwestern China, making frequent use of line illustrations, color maps and photos to support its exhaustive analysis of this often complex topic. Special attention is paid to several Tertiary relict forests that only recently have been identified and studied. This book will serve as a point of departure for future researchers as they trace and interpret the evolution of the natural environment. 000762695 650_0 $$aPlants$$zChina, Southwest. 000762695 650_0 $$aPlant diversity$$zChina, Southwest. 000762695 650_0 $$aEcology$$zChina, Southwest. 000762695 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9789401797405 000762695 830_0 $$aPlant and vegetation ;$$vv.11. 000762695 852__ $$bebk 000762695 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-94-017-9741-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000762695 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:762695$$pGLOBAL_SET 000762695 980__ $$aEBOOK 000762695 980__ $$aBIB 000762695 982__ $$aEbook 000762695 983__ $$aOnline 000762695 994__ $$a92$$bISE
