Abstract:
Abstract Spatial distribution and habitat preferences of 55 river corridor plant species were analyzed on a local scale in the valley of a medium-size regulated river. The analysis was based on the results of a detailed mapping on a 50 km-long section of the Lower San River valley (366 cartogram cells of 1 square km). Selected species were divided into two groups: (1) strictly and (2) loosely confined to river corridors. River corridor plants were found throughout the valley (river channel, active and historical floodplain, older terraces, slopes); however, their frequency was diverse in parti

Abstract:
Ecological corridors are zones of natural vegetation, which connect with other vegetation strips to create migration routes for animals and plants. The aim of our study was to investigate the occurrence and relative abundance of Dermacentor reticulatus in various habitats of the ecological corridor of the Wieprz River in eastern Poland. Ticks were collected using the flagging method in seven sites within the ecological corridor of the Wieprz River, i.e., one of the longest uninterrupted vegetation strips in eastern Poland. The presence of D. reticulatus adults was confirmed in each of the exam

Abstract:
Invasive aquatic plants are a serious global ecological and socio-economic problem because they can cause local extinction of native species and alter navigation and fishing. Eichhornia crassipes (water hyacinth) is a dangerous invasive floating plant that is widely distributed throughout the world. In Lebanon, it has spread since 2006 in the Al Kabir River. Remote sensing techniques have been widely developed to detect and monitor dynamics and extents of invasive plants such as water hyacinth over large areas. However, they become challenging to use in narrow areas such as the Al Kabir River

Abstract:
Really, though—who among us, Russian or otherwise, isn’t a sucker for a deft illusion? Who doesn’t want to believe that the girl really has vanished? And in a time when talk of The End of Nature on our almost fully industrialized planet rings chillingly true, who doesn’t want to believe that there are still a few scraps of earth left with the power to take the worst that humans can throw at them and turn it into nothing at all? Like I said, that’s one of the reasons I came here— to witness the Great Baikal’s awesome act. And the illusion is easy to get sucked into, because here’s the thing: It’s not just smoke and mirrors and nationalistic Russky hype. It’s largely true—despite decades of hefty daily doses of contaminants from the Angara industrial corridor, the Selenga River, the Baikalsk mill, and other sources, there’s been little discernable change in the overall chemistry of the lake—the vast majority of Baikal’s twenty-three quadrillion liters of water remain as pure as just about any on earth. It seems that something remarkable really is going on here. We know it’s not that contaminants are just blending into Baikal’s tremendous volume to the point of becoming undetectable. Scientists have detected miniscule amounts of industrial contaminants even far from the known hot spots, although nowhere near what they’d expect from the amounts they suspect are going into the lake. Nor is it that the lake is merely turning a trick on a grander scale that just about every body of water performs—using its plants and animals and microbes to metabolize and break down some pollutants. Normal biological processes here and elsewhere do destroy some contaminants fairly quickly, but many of the industrial pollutants coming into the lake don’t break down significantly for years or decades, and those basic biochemical limitations are no different among Baikal’s flora and fauna than anywhere else. And the water itself? Well, scientific tests prove it—it’s just plain H2O. It doesn’t have unique properties that allow it to alchemically transform tenacious pollutants into harmless substances. It’s just water.

Abstract:
Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, is situated on flat, low land in the southern part of the Central Plain, one of the main physical units of the country. Through the heart of the city, the Chao Phraya flows from the north and discharges into the Gulf of Thailand, 25 km south of the city centre. The city was founded in 1782, and in its early years numerous klongs (canals) were dug for transportation and defence uses. These canals became corridors of early development, and banks were lined with houses, shop-houses, and temples, etc. With the beauty of its waterway landscape, Bangkok was once dubbed the Venice of the East. Unfortunately, such a resemblance no longer exists as most of the canals have been backfilled to make room for road construction in recent urbanization. The Bangkok metropolis, which at present has a population in excess of 10 million, has expanded rapidly on both banks of the river since 1950. It has encroached into surrounding provinces, covering an area of approximately 60 × 70 km. Owing to its flat topography and close proximity to the sea, flooding threatens the city annually. Modern urbanization has resulted in the drastic destruction or blockage of natural drainage paths, increasing the flood risk to the city. Severe land subsidence from excessive groundwater extraction since the 1960s has intensified the flood risk, as well as creating numerous foundation problems. At present the land surface in some areas is already below mean sea level. The city now has to rely on a flood protection system to prevent inundation. However, its effectiveness is only temporary because land subsidence has not yet ceased. The Central Plain is formed by the Chao Phraya River, the largest in the country. The river basin stretches from the Northern Highland to the Central Plain and covers about one-third of the country (514 000 km2). The Central Plain can be divided into the Upper and Lower Central Plains. The former extends from Tak to Nakhon Sawan Provinces. Four main rivers, namely, the Ping, the Wang, the Yom, and the Nan, which originate in the Northern Highland, traverse the plain and join together at Nakhon Sawan, 240 km north of Bangkok, to form the Chao Phraya River.

Abstract:
In Chapter 5, Eleanor Harrison-Buck and colleagues describe their use of drones to quickly and economically map roughly 7 km<sup>2</sup> of plowed fields at the site of Saturday Creek in the middle Belize River Valley. They argue that Saturday Creek was a central node on the landscape from Preclassic to Colonial times, serving as an important crossroads between east-west and north-south transportation routes. The authors consider the dense settlement around the site core of Saturday Creek to be part of a larger monumental landscape and consider activities taking place in the vacant terrain on the fringes of the peri-urban settlement—what they refer to as the “heterotopia” (borrowing from Foucault). These spaces were separate from the settlement, but integral to its operation and included environments such as the pine ridge that served as an important transportation corridor, vast tracts of wetlands with ditched and drained agricultural fields, and broad floodplains with rich alluvial soils, which were likely places of cacao cultivation. The authors conclude that these “heterotopian” spaces in the monumental landscape are important to consider in settlement studies because they played a vital role in maintaining long-term, dense populations in urban and peri-urban centers like Saturday Creek.

Full text
Abstract:
The Patagonian steppes and the Río de la Plata grasslands occupy a vast proportion of the plains, plateaus, and hills of southern South America, and are characterized by the almost absolute absence of trees. Prairies and steppes (grass and low shrubs) are the dominant physiognomic types, and forests are restricted to some riparian corridors. Savannas become important only in the ecotones of these regions, whereas meadows may be locally important under particular topographic or edaphic conditions. The Río de la Plata grasslands (RPG), one of the most important grassland regions in the world, extend between 28°S and 38°S latitude, covering about 700,000 km2 of eastern Argentina, Uruguay, and southern Brazil. The boundaries of these grasslands include the Atlantic coastline to the east, dry temperate forests to the south and west, and subtropical humid forests to the north. Woody vegetation within the region is restricted to small areas near water bodies, such as the gallery forests along the large Paraná and Uruguay rivers and their tributary streams. The Patagonian steppes occupy the southern tip of the continent from approximately 40°S, and are framed by the Andes to the west and the Atlantic coast to the east and south and cover more than 800,000 km2 of Chile and Argentina. Toward the west, the region displays a sharp ecotone with the subantarctic forests, whereas to the north it grades into a broad zone of Monte scrublands in central Argentina. The RPG and the Patagonian steppes are separated by a wide strip of woody vegetation, the Monte and Espinal phytogeographic units (see chapter 10; Cabrera and Willkins, 1973). In this chapter, we describe the heterogeneity and main characteristics of the dominant ecosystems of the Patagonian steppes and the RPG, focusing on environmental controls and human-induced changes. Although numerous criteria have been applied to describe the internal heterogeneity of both regions, we emphasize here the structural and functional attributes of vegetation as integrators of climate, physiography, and land use.

Abstract:
The principal focus of this chapter is the classic zone of early farming research from the 1960s onwards, the so-called ‘hilly flanks of the Fertile Crescent’ in South-West Asia (Fig. 4.1). This region is normally defined as the arc of hill country to the west of the Syrian desert and to the north and east of the Tigris and Euphrates valleys. The western side of the arc begins east of the Nile in the Sinai and the Gulf of Arabah on the southern border of Israel and Jordan; it continues northwards as the hill country on either side of the Jordan rift valley in Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, western Jordan, and western Syria (the so-called ‘Levantine corridor’); and extends westwards to the Mediterranean littoral. The northern sector is formed by the Taurus mountains along the southern edge of the Anatolian plateau, which curve eastwards from the Mediterranean coast in northern Syria to form the present-day Syrian–Turkish border. The eastern sector consists of the Zagros mountains, running south-eastwards from eastern Turkey and north-west Iran to the Persian Gulf, forming the Iraq–Iran border for most of their length, and continuing in south-west Iran beyond the Persian Gulf towards the Straits of Hormuz. The region also embraces adjacent zones: the alluvial plains of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers and the vast tracts of steppe and desert country separating them from the Levantine, Taurus, and Zagros upland systems; the Anatolian plateau to the north of the Taurus, within modern Turkey; and the Iranian plateau east of the Zagros, within modern Iran. The archaeological literature commonly uses the term Near East to describe the main region of interest, with the Levant for its western side (a term also used in this chapter), and South-West Asia for the eastern side, but the entire region is more correctly termed South-West Asia. The upland areas of the region mostly receive more than 200 millimetres of rainfall a year, which is the minimum required for growing cereals without irrigation. Rainfall decreases drastically moving out into the steppe and desert zones.
