Ferns are an integral a part of the world's flora, appreciated for his or her beauty as ornamentals, problematic as invaders and endangered by human interference. They usually dominate forest understories, but in addition colonize open areas, invade waterways, and survive nutrient-poor wastelands and eroded pastures. This is the primary complete summary of fern ecology, with worldwide examples from Siberia to Hawaii. Subjects include a brief history of the ecological study of ferns, their biogeography and population dynamics, their role in ecosystem nutrient cycles and diversifications to xeric environments, and their responses to disturbance and interactions with other organisms. Fully illustrated ideas provide a framework for college kids and professionals in ecology, conservation, and land administration, and a wealth of information for anyone excited by ferns.
