Plant Life in the World's Mediterranean Climates. The Mediterranean Basin, South Africa, Australia, Chile, and California - Dallman, Peter R.
The Mediterranean Basin, South Africa, Australia, Chile, and California
KORTE INHOUD
Plant Life in the World's Mediterranean Climates provides an illustrated overview of the landscapes, vegetation types, and plants of the five regions of the world that have a Mediterranean climate. This climate of mild, rainy winters and dry, warm summers is found only in California, Central Chile, the Cape Region of South Africa, the southwestern part of Australia, and the Mediterranean Basin, an area that covers less than two percent of the world's land mass. The regions are widely separated and the flora of each is distinctive, having for the most part developed independently. Nevertheless, the plants share remarkably similar characteristics that allow them to thrive in these unusual conditions.
