| Abstract |
"This volume updates and expands upon an earlier book written by Karl Graetz and first published in 1973 by North Carolina Sea Grant. For over four decades, Graetz's book informed residents and visitors to the Carolinas coast about native plants. However, knowledge of coastal processes and the flora and fauna of the region has increased dramatically since 1973. Continued development of coastal resources and new generations of scientists, residents, and visitors have created the need for an update of the original seacoast plants book"--Provided by publisher. |
