This book begins with a brief account of the extraordinary sequence of events that led to emergence of grasslands as major vegetation formations that now occupy some of the driest and hottest and the highest and coldest on earth as well as vast steppes and prairies in more temperate climes. It is the story of grasses successfully competing with forests and woodlands, aided and abetted by grazing herbivores and by humans and their use of fire as a tool. It is a story of adaptation to changing climates and the changing biophysical environments. A major focus of the book is the Palaearctic biogeographic realm that extends over some 45 million km2 and thus more than 1/3 of the terrestrial ice-free surface on Earth. It comprises extensive grasslands of different types and origin, which can be subdivided into (1) natural grasslands with (1a) steppes (climatogenic in dry climates), (1b) arctic-alpine grasslands (climatogenic in cold climates) and (1c) azonal and extrazonal grasslands (pedogenic and topogenic) as well as (2) secondary grasslands created and sustained by human activities, such as livestock grazing, mowing or burning. Grasslands of the Palaearctic do not only form a major basis for the agriculture of the region and thus its food supply, but are also crucial for other ecosystem services and host a supra proportional part of the realm’s plant and animal diversity. To reflect that suitability of grasslands for biodiversity strongly depends on their state, we apply the term High Nature Value grassland to those natural grasslands that are not degraded (in good state) and those secondary grasslands that are not intensified (semi-natural). The situation in a variety of countries where grasslands are evolving under the influence of global climate change is also considered. Case studies are presented on Southern Africa, Eastern Africa, India, China, South America, North America and Australia. The concluding chapter examines a set of themes arising from the chapters that make up the bulk of this book. The following provide a focus: recent history of grassland biomes – brief recap of current thinking and recent trends with special reference to dry grasslands in the Palearctic regions; the current status of grasslands and germplasm resources (biodiversity) – an overview; management systems that ensure sustainability; how to recover degraded grasslands; socio-economic issues and considerations in grassland management; the impacts of environmental problems in grasslands such as future climate change and intensification and the problems/prospects facing pastoralists and other grassland-based livestock producers.

The Ecosystem Concept in Natural Resource Management focuses on the ecosystem concept and its application to natural resource management. It presents examples of research concepts on natural resource phenomena and discusses ecosystem implications for natural resource management. It also covers range, forest, watershed, fisheries, and wildlife resource science and management. Organized into four sections encompassing 10 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the meaning, origin, and importance of ecosystem concepts before proceeding with a discussion of field research projects that address the ecosystem concept and the ways in which the concept has been or can be useful in both research and management in natural resource sciences. More specifically, it explores major developments in the field of ecology in relation to natural resource management, with examples from forest ecology. It also introduces the reader to procedures for studying grassland ecosystems, the watershed-ecosystem concept and studies of nutrient cycles, ecosystem concepts in forestry, ecosystem models in watershed management, and the implementation of the ecosystem concept in training in the natural resource sciences. This book is a valuable resource for scientists, educators, technicians, and training resource managers, as well as students in resource management courses.

" ... This General Technical Report (GTR) presents highlights from the existing body of work, illustrations of the relevance to land management decisionmaking, and tips on how to enhance the effectiveness of each aspect within the entire process. As a result of increased natural resource demands and expectations from the public, agencies, and natural resource managers for "sound decisions based in science," the demand for decision science expertise has grown. Hence, we are excited about this synthesis of decision science for land management. Decision science principles and their component decision-support approaches and tools have become bridges between the "process" of decisionmaking and the "content" of environmental sciences. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Forest Service and other organizations have intensified efforts to develop structured decision processes; we believe those processes provide value in codifying and providing access to science and in enhancing problem-solving in complex and uncertain environments more effectively. We are pleased that this report has explored the intersection between "process" and "content" sciences in the design and use of decision support and in the context of National Forest System (NFS) decisionmaking. When we asked the authors to take stock of our body of decision-support systems and tools, they organized their response under an anatomical framework for generalized decision process that is well established and documented in the decision sciences. Their work has opened a whole new perspective on our investments in decision science and science for decisions. The authors took the charge further by surveying users to better understand how they put these tools to use. The result has been an integrative approach to better understanding how decision-support systems and tools supplement different phases of decision processes, how we can design them to better incorporate science, and how we can better frame and meet land managers' needs for scientific knowledge and expertise ..."--Foreword.
