The Ecology of Common Woody Plants of Cape Cod

Autor Gary R. Sanford Fotograf Ann Marie Griffin-Sanford
en Limba Engleză Paperback
Ecological characteristics of woody plants (i.e. trees, shrubs, and vines) that are common on Cape Cod make up the central theme of this book. After a brief introductory chapter concerning Cape Cod as a setting for plant growth in unmanaged environments, fifty-three plants are discussed. The reader will find a photograph and short description of each plant's appearance, followed by a discussion of ecological features that play a role in the plant's ability to establish, grow, and reproduce in particular environments. As a rule, ecological information includes habitat affinities, successional status, shade tolerance, sexual and asexual reproductive characteristics, seed dispersal and germination, rooting features, adaptations allowing survival during and after fire, and wildlife utilization. An "Information Sources" section, usually consisting of two or more references that are generally available on the web, is included for each plant so that the reader may easily pursue further information. How plants are able to contend with and flourish in particular habitats is an extraordinary topic. Perhaps this book will increase the reader's understanding and enjoyment of the natural world that supports our existence.
