These expressions come in many forms: jokes, urban legends, digitally altered photographs, mock news stories, press releases or interoffice memoranda, parodies of songs, poems, political and commercial advertisements, movie previews and posters, still or animated cartoons, and short live-action films. In Newslore: Folklore on the Internet and in the News, author Russell Frank offers a snapshot of the items of newslore disseminated via the Internet that gained the widest currency around the turn of the millennium. 606 $aAmerican wit and humor$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFolklore$zUnited States 606 $aFolklore and the Internet 606 $aSocial psychology$zUnited States 615 0$aAmerican wit and humor$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aFolklore 615 0$aFolklore and the Internet. 615 0$aSocial psychology 676 $a818/.607 700 $aFrank$b Russell$f1954-$01469863 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791997503321 996 $aNewslore$93681461 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03952nam 2201057z- 450 001 9910557313703321 005 20210501 035 $a(CKB)5400000000042718 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/69365 035 $a(oapen)doab69365 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000042718 100 $a20202105d2020 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aBiodiversity of Vegetation and Flora in Tropical Africa 210 $aBasel, Switzerland$cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2020 215 $a1 online resource (180 p.) 311 08$a3-03943-531-0 311 08$a3-03943-532-9 330 $aAfrican ecosystems comprise a wealthy repository of biodiversity, with a high proportion of native and endemic plant species, which makes them biologically unique and providers of a wide range of ecosystem services. A large part of African populations, in both rural and urban areas, depend on plants for their survival and welfare, but many ecosystems are being degraded, mostly due to the growing impacts of climate change and other anthropogenic actions and environmental problems. Loss of habitat and biodiversity affects livelihoods, water supply and food security and reduces the resilience of ecosystems in the African continent. The knowledge about the great African plant and ecosystem diversity, and the structure, composition and processes involved in vegetation dynamics, is crucial to promote their sustainable use and to preserve one of the most understudied regions in the world. This Special Issue aimed to gather contributions that update and improve such knowledge. 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aResearch and information: general$2bicssc 610 $aAfrica 610 $aAfrican potato 610 $aaridification in NW Africa 610 $aBaikiaea 610 $aBia Tano Forest Reserve 610 $abiodiversity conservation 610 $abiogeographic vicariance 610 $abiome 610 $acommercialization 610 $aconservation 610 $acultivation 610 $adistribution patterns 610 $adisturbance 610 $adiversity 610 $aecotone 610 $aextinction 610 $afire 610 $aflora 610 $aforest core 610 $agap 610 $agene capture 610 $agene shopping 610 $ahabitat preference 610 $aHypoxidaceae 610 $aJusticia 610 $aland cover 610 $aMacaronesian islands 610 $amedicinal plant 610 $amiombo 610 $aMiombo woodlands 610 $aMODIS burnt area product 610 $amolecular dating 610 $aMonechma 610 $aNgel Nyaki 610 $aniche partitioning 610 $aphylogenomics 610 $aphylogeny 610 $aplant diversity 610 $aRADseq 610 $aregeneration 610 $asavanna 610 $asavannah 610 $aspecies composition 610 $aspecies diversity 610 $aspecies sorting 610 $asub-Saharan Africa 610 $atorus translation 610 $atropical biodiversity 610 $aunsustainable harvesting 610 $avascular flora 610 $avegetation 610 $aWest African Monsoon (WAM) 610 $awild harvesting 610 $awildfires 610 $awoodland 610 $aWWF ecoregions 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aResearch and information: general 700 $aCatarino$b Lui?s$4edt$01289209 702 $aRomeiras$b Maria$4edt 702 $aCatarino$b Lui?s$4oth 702 $aRomeiras$b Maria$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557313703321 996 $aBiodiversity of Vegetation and Flora in Tropical Africa$93021088 997 $aUNINA
