The Living Earth
Underlying Earth's natural beauty is a complex system of ecosystems that contour the planet and host its multifarious life forms. Though stratified by topographical and physiographical features, these regions function collectively to support an incredible range of biodiversity. Symbiotic relationships and environmental conditions that sustain the natural order are the subjects of this engrossing series. Several volumes navigate Earth's various ecosystems, with an emphasis on each area's biotic and abiotic elements, while others offer comprehensive discussions of ecological threats and ongoing efforts to combat them.
• Annotated diagrams illustrate key processes
• Stunning, full-color photographs depict a wide variety of organisms and landscapes
• Appendices include a geologic chart and augment the already in-depth coverage

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."
