Desert Ecology depicts the world’s desert ecosystems and describes in depth the Indian deserts, its resources, different production systems including forestry, agroforestry, agriculture, horticulture, animal husbandry, mining, industries, etc. It also deals with the efforts made in alleviating hunger and poverty and bringing greenery and granary to desert inhabitants through large scale afforestation, technological advances in sustainable development of resources, promoting awareness and education of local masses and by promoting international and national concerns on anti desertification programs and policies. Concepts of arid ecology and cod deserts are scientifically discussed. Unlike books that merely identify what plants and animals live in the desert, Desert Ecology is a comprehensive but accessible introduction to how these organisms live where they do. Based on the regional ecosystem the book covers all major deserts of India and the world. Unlike books that merely identify what plants and animals live in the desert, Desert Ecology is a comprehensive but accessible introduction to how these organisms live where they do. This elaborate study will prove invaluable to research scholars geographers, environmentalists, students and tourists.
