Book Synopsis Geological Cross-Section Through Part of the Southern Appalachian Orogen by : Steven A. Goldberg
Download or read book Geological Cross-Section Through Part of the Southern Appalachian Orogen written by Steven A. Goldberg. This book was released on 1991-01-08. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 365. This field trip is intended to demonstrate the major lithologic sequences and the main tectonic and metamorphic features in a segment of the Blue Ridge geologic province in northwestern North Carolina and adjacent parts of Tennessee and Virginia. Many of the field locations chosen for the six-day field trip emphasize geological characteristics common to much of the southern and central Appalachians. Most of the localities to be visited are in the Blue Ridge, with some in the Valley and Ridge province to the northwest and the Brevard zone and Inner Piedmont to the southeast. The trip provides an overview of the anatomy and evolution of terranes subjected to the following tectonic episodes: Late Proterozoic rifting, the development of oceanic lithosphere, the subsequent closure of this ocean, and further modification by multiple episodes of Paleozoic deformation and metamorphism.

Book Synopsis Wildflowers and Plant Communities of the Southern Appalachian Mountains and Piedmont by : Timothy P. Spira
Download or read book Wildflowers and Plant Communities of the Southern Appalachian Mountains and Piedmont written by Timothy P. Spira. This book was released on 2011-05-16. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This richly illustrated field guide serves as an introduction to the wildflowers and plant communities of the southern Appalachians and the rolling hills of the adjoining piedmont. Rather than organizing plants, including trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants, by flower color or family characteristics, as is done in most guidebooks, botanist Tim Spira takes a holistic, ecological approach that enables the reader to identify and learn about plants in their natural communities. This approach, says Spira, better reflects the natural world, as plants, like other organisms, don't live in isolation; they coexist and interact in myriad ways. Full-color photo keys allow the reader to rapidly preview plants found within each of the 21 major plant communities described, and the illustrated species description for each of the 340 featured plants includes fascinating information about the ecology and natural history of each plant in its larger environment. With this new format, readers can see how the mountain and piedmont landscapes form a mosaic of plant communities that harbor particular groups of plants. The volume also includes a glossary, illustrations of plant structures, and descriptions of sites to visit. Whether you're a beginning naturalist or an expert botanist, this guidebook is a useful companion on field excursions and wildflower walks, as well as a valuable reference.
