Field guide for kids to identify sharks of the Galapagos Marine Reserve.
In Galapagos, 83% of the landmass falls within the arid zone. Restoring plant communities in this zone is challenging and slow, and natural regeneration in severely degraded areas is very limiting. Our scientists work to restore the arid habitat across various islands in the archipelago, notably Baltra Island, which has undergone significant human alteration, and special use sites such as garbage dumps and quarries on inhabited islands.
This new work expands knowledge of Galapagos flora to 84 species and, for the first time, details effective methods for their propagation.
We hope this book becomes an indispensable tool for greening Galapagos towns and for fostering greater appreciation of our native flora.
