Integrating decades of research, leading community ecologists and field botanists describe and classify California's vegetation types, identify environmental factors that determine the distribution of vegetation types, analyze the role of disturbance regimes in vegetation dynamics, chronicle change due to human activities, identify conservation issues, describe restoration strategies, and prioritize directions for new research. Several new chapters address statewide issues such as the historic appearance and impact of introduced and invasive plants, the soils of California, and more. 606 $aPlant ecology$zCalifornia 606 $aPhytogeography$zCalifornia 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPlant ecology 615 0$aPhytogeography 676 $a581.9794 686 $aRU 55489$2rvk 701 $aBarbour$b Michael G$063239 701 $aKeeler-Wolf$b Todd$01056132 701 $aSchoenherr$b Allan A$01056133 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455525903321 996 $aTerrestrial vegetation of California$92490256 997 $aUNINA
