Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an exhaustively researched exploration of chaparral, a unique and biodiverse plant community endemic to specific regions of the American Southwest and Mexico. The author describes the different species that comprise chaparral, their morphology, and explores how they have adapted to their region's Mediterranean climate. The book also analyzes the impact of chaparral on the local water supply, arguing that chaparral not only helps conserve but also regulates the availability of water in the region. The author makes the case that chaparral is an important part of the local ecosystem and merits more attention and study.
