In a richly drawn, anecdotally driven narrative, Joe C. Truett, a grasslands ecologist who writes with a flair for language, traces the evolutionary, historical, and cultural forces that have reshaped North American rangelands over the past two centuries. He introduces an intriguing cast of characters-wildlife and grasslands biologists, archaeologists, ranchers, and petroleum geologists-to illuminate a wide range of related topics: our love affair with turf and how it manifests in lawns and sports, the ecological and economic dimensions of ranching, the glory of cowboy culture, grasslands and restoration ecology, and more. His book ultimately provides the background against which we can envision a new paradigm for restoring rangeland ecosystems-and a new paradigm for envisioning a more sustainable future. 410 0$aOrganisms and environments ;$v11. 606 $aGrassland ecology 606 $aGrasslands 606 $aGrasses 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGrassland ecology. 615 0$aGrasslands. 615 0$aGrasses. 676 $a578.740978 700 $aTruett$b Joe C$g(Joe Clyde),$f1941-$0920147 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454839003321 996 $aGrass$92466368 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04144nam 2200697Ia 450 001 9910777311903321 005 20230421044748.0 010 $a0-19-756087-3 010 $a1-280-52811-7 010 $a9786610528110 010 $a0-19-535694-2 010 $a1-4294-1461-8 035 $a(CKB)1000000000413649 035 $a(EBL)273427 035 $a(OCoLC)476016223 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000275600 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12063210 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000275600 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10223129 035 $a(PQKB)11434659 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC273427 035 $a(StDuBDS)EDZ0002337983 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL273427 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10358252 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL52811 035 $a(OCoLC)466432442 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000413649 100 $a19961030d1997 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aX-ray charge densities and chemical bonding$b[electronic resource] /$fPhilip Coppens 210 $a[Chester, England] $cInternational Union of Crystallography ; Oxford ;$aNew York $cOxford University Press$d1997 215 $a1 online resource (373 p.) 225 1 $aInternational Union of Crystallography texts on crystallography ;$v4 300 $aPreviously issued in print: 1997. 311 $a0-19-509823-4 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 328-346) and index. 327 $aContents; Chapter 1 Scattering of X-rays and Neutrons; Chapter 2 The Effect of Thermal Vibrations on the Intensities of the Diffracted Beams; Chapter 3 Chemical Bonding and the X-ray Scattering Formalism; Chapter 4 Least-Squares Methods and Their Use in Charge Density Analysis; Chapter 5 Fourier Methods and Maximum Entropy Enhancement; Chapter 6 Space Partitioning and Topological Analysis of the Total Charge Density; Chapter 7 The Electrostatic Moments of a Charge Distribution; Chapter 8 X-ray Diffraction and the Electrostatic Potential 327 $aChapter 9 The Electron Density and the Lattice Energy of CrystalsChapter 10 Charge Density Studies of Transition Metal Compounds; Chapter 11 The Charge Density in Extended Solids; Chapter 12 Electron Density Studies of Molecular Crystals; Appendix A: Tensor Notation; Appendix B: Symmetry and Symmetry Restrictions; Appendix C: The 50% Probability Ellipsoid; Appendix D: Spherical Harmonic Functions; Appendix E: Products of Spherical Harmonic Functions; Appendix F: Energy-Optimized Single-?
