A Natural History of Oregon's Lake Abert in the Northwest Great Basin Landscape

Beschreibung

A Natural History of Oregon's Lake Abert in the Northwest Great Basin Landscape focuses on a salt lake and includes descriptions and numerous photos of the region's geology, hydrology, and plants and animals--from lichens to pronghorn sheep--as well as its archaeology. Because birds are so conspicuous, both on the lake and in the uplands, there is an abundant amount of information including about them.
