Gli Anemoni Bianchi Sono Piante Molto Belle E Diffuse
14 maggio 2011 (f.f.) gli anemoni bianchi sono piante molto belle e diffuse sulle nostre montagne anche se non creano i meravigliosi tappeti fioriti presenti nei boschi di latifoglie del nord-Europa. Distinguiamo due specie molto simili che devono essere rispettate anche se solo una è presente tra le specie protette in Toscana. IL GENERE ANEMONE Famiglia Ranunculaceae Anemone L. fu classificato da Linneo nel 1753. Il nome generico Anemone deriva dal latino ănĕmōnē, es termine usato da Plinio il Vecchio, a sua volta derivato dal greco άνεμώνη che denominava queste piante. Il termine è legato, nella tradizione popolare, a άνεμος (= vento) essendo questa pianta diffusa nei boschi esposti ai venti oppure perchè il suo fiore si apre al soffio dei venti. In realtà gli studiosi sono incerti sulla reale origine del termine che alcuni fanno derivare da Naaman, nome semitico di Adone, dal cui sangue, secondo la leggenda, si formarono gli anemoni. Diversi sono i miti che riguardano questo fiore: in uno di essi Zefiro si innamorò della ninfa Anemone e Chloris, la dea dei fiori, gelosa, la trasformò nel fiore condannato a schiudersi al soffio dei venti. In un altro mito Adone,del quale si era innamorata Venere, venne ucciso dal gelosissimo Marte trasformatosi in cinghiale, dalle lacrime di Venere e dal sangue di Adone sbocciarono gli anemoni. L’anemone era considerato simbolo di malinconia e dolore e in alcune tradizioni divenne simbolo del lutto e della morte Il genere Anemone è strettamente imparentato con i generi Pulsatilla e Hepatica tanto che in passato essi erano compresi nello stesso genere. -

Bravo) ABSTRACT The asexual and sexual reproduction of Ostreopsis cf. ovata was studied in the field and in cultures isolated from two locations in the Mediterranean Sea. Asexual division took place in the motile stage by the sharing of theca (desmoschisis). High cell-size variability and differences in division capability were detected in the cultures. Thecal analyses and nuclear division patterns allowed characterization of the different phases of dividing cells obtained during an in situ cell-cycle sampling performed off Llavaneres beach (Northeast Spain). During the 45-h cycle, binucleated cells accounted for 2.6% of the population. Division was initiated with the onset of dusk and reached a maximum 3–4 h before dawn. No dividing cells were detected after 09:00 AM. Sexuality occurred both in cultures and in natural populations of O. cf. ovata. Mating gamete pairs were the only sexual stages that could be distinguished from vegetative stages. The differences between these pairs and dividing cells are described herein. -

A New Plant Community with the Strictly Endemic "Cirsium Alpis-Lunae
ARTICLES Mediterranean Botany ISSNe 2603-9109 http://dx.doi.org/10.5209/MBOT.60195 A new plant community with the strictly endemic Cirsium alpis-lunae (Asteraceae) in the Northern Apennines (Italy) and considerations on the alliances Senecionion samniti and Adenostylion alpinae Daniele Viciani1, Lorenzo Lazzaro1, Vincenzo Gonnelli2 & Lorenzo Lastrucci3 Received: 13 May 2018 / Accepted: 20 January 2019 / Published online: 20 February 2019 Abstract. We conducted a phytosociological study of the particular coenoses with presence of Cirsium alpis-lunae, a strictly endemic species living in marly-arenaceous montane screes of the Apennines between Tuscany, Emilia-Romagna and Marche. We surveyed all the reported locations and analyzed the coenological and ecological features of the communities by means of standard statistical methods, describing a new association, Laserpitio latifolii-Cirsietum alpis-lunae. We attributed the new association to Mulgedio-Aconitetea, but we noted in the literature some nomenclatural misinterpretations concerning the syntaxonomic treatment of this Apennine vegetation at the order and alliance level. We found that Adenostylion alpinae is the most suitable alliance to encompass Laserpitio latifolii-Cirsietum alpis-lunae and it cannot be considered a synonym of Senecionion samniti. Senecionion samniti was here lectotypified, and seems to be closer toMolinio-Arrhenetheretea than to Mulgedio-Aconitetea.

Una nueva asociación de Cirsium alpis-lunae (Asteraceae) endémica de los Apeninos del Norte (Italia) y consideraciones sobre las alianzas Senecionion samniti y Adenostylion alpinae Resumen. Se presenta el estudio fitosociológico de las comunidades con presencia de Cirsium alpis-lunae, una especie estrictamente endémica que vive en taludes o pedreras margoso o arenosas de los Apeninos entre la Toscana, Emilia- Romagna y Marche. -

FORESTKEEPERS Spring 2020 In This Issue A Trillion Trees By Brian Schweiss, MDC Forestry Missouri River Unit Chief 2 Woods Updates The Trillion Tree campaign sounds amazing. According to some, planting a trillion trees could potentially remove 2/3 of the carbon emitted since the Industrial 3 Trillion Tree Revolution. Let’s look at the application of this concept to Missouri. campaign Where might these trees be planted in Missouri?

These are forests, adjacent 5 Forest Bulletin: to streams, that serve to intercept pollution in runoff and keep it out of streams. Shortleaf Pine Planting this would take 582,467,200 trees at a rate of 400 trees per acre. This gets us to 0.058% towards the goal world wide of one trillion trees. 6 Take a Hike! That’s a lot of trees. It’s not only the sheer numbers that makes this daunting but 7 Events also the competing land uses. Many of these acres could already be in pasture or New Members cropland.

The Most Effective Way to Tackle Climate Change? Plant 1 Trillion Trees
The most effective way to tackle climate change? Plant 1 trillion trees edition.cnn.com/2019/04/17/world/trillion-trees-climate-change-intl-scn/index.html 17. April 2019 London (CNN)What's low-tech, sustainable and possibly the most effective thing we can do to fight climate change? Planting trees. A trillion of them. Tom Crowther is a climate change ecologist at Swiss university ETH Zurich. Four years ago he found there are about 3 trillion trees already on earth -- much higher than NASA's previous estimate of 400 billion. Now, his team of researchers has calculated there is enough room on the planet for an additional 1.2 trillion -- and that planting them would have huge benefits in terms of absorbing atmospheric carbon dioxide, the main driver of climate change. "The amount of carbon that we can restore if we plant 1.2 trillion trees, or at least allow those trees to grow, would be way higher than the next best climate change solution," Crowther told CNN. 1/5 Global tree density, calculated by Crowther's team. Existing forests are shown in green, potential forests are yellow. Because his research is currently under review for publication in the journal Science, he says he can't share exact figures of how much extra CO2 could be stored by those trees. But he points to numbers from Project Drawdown -- a non-profit that ranks climate solutions by the amount of CO2 they could remove from the atmosphere. Its number one ranked solution -- managing the release of HFC greenhouse gases from fridges and air conditioners -- could reduce atmospheric CO2 by 90 billion tons.
