It is written by the most experienced authorities in their fields and geographic areas. Stretching from the Caribbean to the western Pacific, the coral reefs of the USA span extensive geographic and biotic diversity, occur in a wide variety of geomorphological settings, and provide a representative cross-section of Holocene reef-building. This book will therefore be of broad general interest. For the first time, complete scholarly reviews are given for the geology, geomorphology and the biology of reefs encompassing a vast area stretching from the Mariana Islands in the west, Samoa in the south, Hawaii in the north and the Virgin Islands in the east. This book is not a status report, but will provide up-to-date information about stressors and the biotic responses of the reefs, as well as the geological explanations why these reefs exist in the first place. It will be an invaluable baseline-reference for all those who are engaged in research or management of these coral reefs or to those who simply enjoy being well-informed about one of the most iconic ecosystems of the USA. 410 0$aCoral reefs of the world (Springer (Firm)) ;$vv. 1. 606 $aCoral reefs and islands$zUnited States 606 $aCoral reef biology$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCoral reefs and islands 615 0$aCoral reef biology 676 $a578.7789 701 $aRiegl$b Bernhard M$0925620 701 $aDodge$b Richard Eugene$0925621 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458344303321 996 $aCoral reefs of the USA$92078249 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03272nam 2200625Ia 450 001 9910822914603321 005 20240416171858.0 010 $a1-59726-990-5 035 $a(CKB)2560000000054817 035 $a(OCoLC)692205224 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10437884 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000426053 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11307469 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000426053 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10373471 035 $a(PQKB)11058008 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3317506 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3317506 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10437884 035 $a(OCoLC)923187684 035 $a(EXLCZ)992560000000054817 100 $a20100329d2010 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aPrinciples of brownfield regeneration $ecleanup, design, and reuse of derelict land /$fJustin B.

The authors of Principles of Brownfield Regeneration argue that, compared to "greenfields"-farmland, forest, or pasturelands that have never been developed-brownfields offer a more sustainable land development choice. They believe that brownfields are central to a sustainable strategy of thwarting sprawl, preserving or regenerating open space, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and reinvesting in urbanized areas. Drawing on interviews with people involved in brownfield projects as well as on their own considerable expertise, the authors use five case studies to describe the steps for cleaning up a site and creating viable land for development or open space. 606 $aBrownfields 606 $aCities and towns$zUnited States$xGrowth 606 $aCity planning$zUnited States 606 $aUrban renewal$zUnited States$vCase studies 615 0$aBrownfields. 615 0$aCities and towns$xGrowth. 615 0$aCity planning 615 0$aUrban renewal 676 $a307.3/4160973 700 $aHollander$b Justin B$0921304 701 $aGold$b Julia L$01712540 701 $aKirkwood$b Niall$0750195 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822914603321 996 $aPrinciples of brownfield regeneration$94104800 997 $aUNINA
