Book Description
This book presents a biography of the Danish botanist Eugen Warming. As the author of a treatise on ecology that brought him international recognition, he was able to inspire the first generation of 20th-century European and American ecologists. His innovative approach to nature and his Arctic and tropical missions heralded the birth of a new science and an ecological awareness. As a professor at several Scandinavian universities during a period of intense debate and controversy over evolutionary theories, Eugen Warming vigorously asserted his convictions. Birth of Scientific Ecology presents the image of a man of knowledge and power, recognized by his contemporaries as a founder of ecology and a player in the ecological project of the Kingdom of Denmark at a time when the empires were clashing.

Book Description
This study illustrates the significant role fire has played in the history of Kejimkujik National Park, one of the most fire-prone areas in the Acadian forest of Nova Scotia. Functional correlation between past fire occurrences and present-day forest ecology was determined using data drawn from a blending of both field & archival sources. The data were employed to determine the park's historic fire regime, to define the role of fire as a driving force in forest succession & retrogression, and to identify the park's signature pattern of post-fire forest communities & seral stages. The results reveal the significance of fire in sustaining the ecological integrity of the park and in providing a contextual framework for effective fire management. Appendices include lists of plant species found in the park, copies of forms used in the field studies, data on forest age structure & tree density, summaries of historical fire reports & archival data on fires in the park, information on fire scar physiognomy & sampling, and copies of available Parks Canada fire reports for the park, 1968-2000.
