Igapo (Black-water flooded forests) of the Amazon Basin - Bog - Hardback

Igapó forests are a common part of the Amazon whose ecosystems are critical to our shared human future. The introduction addresses the structure, function and dynamics of igapó forests in the Amazon basin, focusing on their uniqueness due to their high level of complexity defined as the many ways that different components of igapó forests in the Amazon basin ecosystem interact and also on how those interactions are on a higher-order compared to other tropical forests. The text then breaks down..

Forest Politics from Below - Ricardo Kaufer - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG - Plusbog.dk

This book presents an analysis of forest politics that employs a broader scope to include non-institutionalized actors. It offers a comparative perspective on various environmental social movements fighting to protect forests around the globe, including indigenous communities in the Amazon and eco-anarchists in Europe. By examining the political goals, motives, and tactics of these sometimes-radical environmentalists, it helps readers understand the commonalities and differences among these "grass-roots forest politicians." In addition, the book highlights the importance of forest-related struggles for a just transition to a carbon-neutral future. Accordingly, it will appeal to scholars of political science, public policy, and political sociology, as well as anyone interested in social movements and forest conservation.

The Arms-Bearing Woman and British Theatre in the Age of Revolution, 1789-1815 - Sarah Burdett - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG -

This book explores shifting representations and receptions of the arms-bearing woman on the British stage during a period in which she comes to stand in Britain as a striking symbol of revolutionary chaos. The book makes a case for viewing the British Romantic theatre as an arena in which the significance of the armed woman is constantly remodelled and reappropriated to fulfil diverse ideological functions. Used to challenge as well as to enforce established notions of sex and gender difference, she is fashioned also as an allegorical tool, serving both to condemn and to champion political and social rebellion at home and abroad. Magnifying heroines who appear on stage wielding pistols, brandishing daggers, thrusting swords, and even firing explosives, the study spotlights the intricate and often surprising ways in which the stage amazon interacts with Anglo-French, Anglo-Irish, Anglo-German, and Anglo-Spanish debates at varying moments across the French revolutionary and Napoleonic campaigns. At the same time, it foregrounds the extent to which new dramatic genres imported from Europe -notably, the German Sturm und Drang and the French-derived melodrama- facilitate possibilities at the turn of the nineteenth century for a refashioned female warrior, whose degree of agency, destructiveness, and heroism surpasses that of her tragic and sentimental predecessors.

Population Genetics in the Neotropics - - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG - Plusbog.dk

The Neotropics hold high levels of biodiversity, figuring among the essential hotspots for conservation on Earth. Invaluable genetic resources of this biogeographic dominion must deserve attention of conservationists, as well as of breeders. This project is aimed at producing a book on population genetics directed to an audience of undergraduate and graduate students but not limited to those. In a distinct approach, we seek to develop a material devoted to population genetics in the Neotropics, contextualizing examples of several animal and plant species belonging to this highly diverse dominion. Traditional books available in the subject of population genetics commonly deal with organisms that are native to North America and Europe, while neotropical organisms are lacking in the context, so our book comes forth as an initiative towards covering that. Among several subjects, this textbook addresses studies on molecular evolution and phylogenetics, genetic structure at broad and fine spatial scales, landscape genetics, niche modeling and climate change, conservation genetics and quantitative variation and its genetic components in hotspots of biodiversity such as the Amazon, the Brazilian Savanna and the Atlantic Rain Forest. It should provide an easy going reading, with the main concepts being presented and contextualized within the Neotropical dynamics of plants and animal populations. Basic mathematical foundations of population genetics theory are provided, but no further details on deductions and advanced algebra are given, for the purpose of simplicity. The application of the studies on conservation and breeding is also addressed. The chapters were planned to be brief, describing the main concepts, processes and case studies. Invited authors were encouraged to describe examples from their own research in the Neotropics. Altogether, this project may offer students with a textbook with concepts and ideas of the Neotropical genetic diversity, bringing awareness and stimulating endeavors towards the continuance of conservation of endangered species in their environments of origin.
