Aerial photography has revealed the widespread phenomenon of patterns of alternating dense and sparse vegetation in more arid areas of the world. This volume synthesizes half a century's accumulated knowledge of both theoretical and applied landscape function in these regions. It covers structure, dynamics, and methods of study, as well as disturbances to these landscapes and relevant management issues. Studies of banded landscapes have yielded valuable lessons for understanding other semi-arid landscapes as well, including lessons for sustainable use and rehabilitation.
