Beschreibung:
Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 256 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | By providing multiple economic goods and ecosystem services, Latin American forests play a key role in the environmental, social and economic welfare of the region¿s countries. From the tropical forests of Central America to the Mediterranean and temperate vegetation of the southern cone, these forests face a myriad of phytosanitary problems that negatively impact on both conservation efforts and forest industry. This book brings together the perspectives of several Latin American researchers on pest and disease management. Each chapter provides modern views of the status and management alternatives to problems as serious as the impact of introduced exotic insects and diseases on Pinus and Eucalyptus plantations throughout the continent, and the emergence of novel insect outbreaks in tropical and temperate native forests associated with global warming. It is a valuable guide for researchers and practitioners working on forest health in Latin America and around the world. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 36130694/1
