Flora of the Santa Cruz Mountains of California
Author: John H. Thomas
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 9780804718622
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 452
Book Description
The Santa Cruz Mountains, an area covering almost 1,400 square miles from San Francisco southward to the Monterey County line, are a part of the Coast Range of Central California. The Mountains and the adjacent lowlands have a rich vascular flora, and about 1,800 species, subspecies, varieties, forms, and hybrids of ferns, conifers, and flowering plants, distributed among 168 families, have been reported from the region. This comprehensive flora, the first of the area, is designed for use by both the serious beginner and the trained botanist. The flora is illustrated by 250 line drawing and ten photographs. In addition, there is a map of the Santa Cruz Mountains area and a stratigraphic profile of the rock formations. The stratigraphic profile and a section on geology have been contributed by Dr. Earl E. Brabb of the United States Geological Survey. Distributional notes, keys to families, genera, and species, pertinent synonymy, a glossary of technical terms, an index of place names, and common0name and scientific-name indexes form the body of the text. The Introduction contains a description of the geography of the Santa Cruz Mountains and adjacent lowlands, seconds on the geology and climate, a brief discussion and analysis of the vegetation and floristic affinities of the area, and a history of past botanical collecting. A selected list of references has been appended to allow the interested individual to pursue his studies further.

Exploring the Monterey Peninsula and Big Sur

Pages : 0
Book Description
Jeremy Arkes gives us the nature book he wanted when he moved to the Monterey Peninsula 14 years earlier. This book provides all you need to know for hiking and appreciating nature from Monterey through Carmel and to Big Sur - one of the most pristine, abundant, and diverse ecosystems in California. With a tinge of humor, Arkes:?describes the "nature" of the trees, whales, sea otters, seals, sea lions, egrets, herons, tide-pool critters, and more?tells you how to find and recognize these species?discusses the role of some of the species in the local and global ecosystems?helps you better appreciate a walk in the forest?explains in simple terms how the Big Sur mountains and Point Lobos rocks formed ?tells you where to go to enjoy a calm or restless ocean?provides his own vivid photos of the species, the geology, and the best hikes?suggests a photographic scavenger hunt and a photo contest you can have with friends (or with kids)?fluidly weaves in how John Steinbeck, in Cannery Row, used Monterey nature as a metaphor for the harsh reality of post-Depression life.In addition, Arkes draws connections between some animal (and tree!) behaviors and human behaviors, including some of the root causes of the divisiveness and dehumanizing behavior we have witnessed recently. Making these connections helps us understand the various species better. More importantly, it could help us better understand ourselves.
