Biomes and Ecosystems

The Living Earth

Earth's biosphere supports several unique biomes and ecosystems. Though they operate as self-contained units, these regions also operate as part of a global network, nurturing interdependence among greatly diverse plant and animal species. The evolution of these wondrous realms--both aquatic and terrestrial--and the various natural elements that distinguish them from one another are the subjects of this comprehensive volume.

Series Review: The Living Earth
"This series focuses on eight different ecological units and issues. Explanations of climate, physical environments, and biodiversity are explained with great detail. A useful feature is that notable ecosystems, regions, or explorers are highlighted in each book. This series can be used to supplement classroom materials for further research."
