North American Deserts

Ecology of Our Arid Lands

Beschreibung

Deserts cover about one third of the earth’s surface and are its largest terrestrial ecosystem. Six unique desert ecosystems stretch across the United States: the Great Basin, Mojave, Chihuahuan, Sonoran, Peninsular, and the Painted Desert. Both a travelogue and science writing, this book is a celebration of these ruthlessly beautiful landscapes.
