Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 422 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Synopsis: The 3rd instalment in a series of literature on ASEAN Meliponiculture and Beyond, this portion entails the varied and diverse Stingless Bee Fauna in the Indonesian archipelago. We attempt to bridge the different beekeeping and culture methods in hiving, colony acquisition or multiplication, forage provisioning, nest building material sources and regulating extreme weather or local conditions. To address conservation across the regional ASEAN divide, we produce this literature in a dual­language format for comprehension by a multi-lingual and multi-ethnic population. The methodology employed here will vary from the common to more sophisticated innovations, and at times beyond basic product development. This work also looks at honey-making bee species diversity in the Greater and Lesser Sunda Regions, Wallacea, and the Papuasia Region of the Indonesian Archipelago. It is a vast expanse of thousands of Islands and varied flora and fauna. We have compiled literary sources from many academicians, enthusiasts and breeders of stingless bees. A directory of each culture's varied regional and vernacular names is also included.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Humans have been fascinated by bees for centuries. Bees display a wide spectrum of behaviours and ecological roles that have provided biologists with a vast amount of material for study. Among the types observed are both social and solitary bees, those that either pollinate or destroy flowers, and those that display traits allowing them to survive underwater. Others fly mainly at night, and some build their nests either in the ground or in the tallest rain forest trees. This highly acclaimed book summarises and interprets research from around the world on tropical bee diversity and draws together major themes in ecology, natural history and evolution. The numerous photographs and line illustrations, and the large reference section, qualify this book as a field guide and reference for workers in tropical and temperate research. The fascinating ecology and natural history of these bees will also provide absorbing reading for other ecologists and naturalists. This book was first published in 1989.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book covers pot-pollen-the other product, besides honey, stored in cerumen pots by Meliponini. Critical assessment is given of stingless bee and pot-pollen biodiversity in the Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania. Topics addressed include historical biogeography, cultural knowledge, bee foraging behavior, pollination, ecological interactions, health applications, microbiology, the natural history of bee nests, and chemical, bioactive and individual plant components in stored pollen.Pot-pollen maintains the livelihoods of stingless bees and provides many interesting biological products that are just now beginning to be understood. The Meliponini have developed particular nesting biologies, uses of building materials, and an architecture for pollen storage. Environmental windows provide optimal temperature and availability of pollen sources for success in plant pollination and pollen storage. Palynological composition and pollen taxonomy are usedto assess stingless honey bee pollination services. Pollen processing with microorganisms in the nest modifies chemical composition and bioactivity, and confers nutraceutical benefits to the honey and pollen widely relished by native people. Humans have always used stingless bees. Yet, sustainable meliponiculture (stingless bee-keeping) projects have so far lacked a treatise on pot-pollen, which experts provide in this transdisciplinary, groundbreaking volume. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Rain Forest Biology and the Canopy System, Sarawak, 1992-2002 The rain forest takes an immense breath and then exhales, once every four or ve years, as a major global weather pattern plays out, usually heralded by El Nin o-Southern Oscillation. While this powerful natural cycle has occurred for many millennia, it is during the past decade that both the climate of Earth and the people living on it have had an increasing in uence on the weather pattern itself, with many biological consequences. In Southeast Asia, as also in most of the Neotropics, El Nin o accompanies one of the most exuberant o- pourings of nature's diversity. After several years of little activity, the incredibly diverse rain forests suddenly burst into ower-a phenomenon referred to as General Flowering in Asia. Plant populations are rejuvenated and animals are fed, but the process involves a delicate and complex balance. When the canopy access system was under construction at Lambir Hills - tional Park in the early 1990s, it made use of an underlying technology that was already in place: bridges. For centuries, bridges have spanned the natural chasms over rivers. This existing network of bridges and the people who built and use them produced the technology we needed to gain access to the canopy. Bridge builders were our natural allies in the quest for biological knowledge of the high canopy.…
