DOWNLOAD EBOOKOzark National Scenic Riverways includes 80,785 acres along the Current and Jack's Fork Rivers in Shannon, Carter, Dent, and Texas counties in Missouri. Located in the Current River Hills subsection of the Ozark Highlands physiographic province (Nigh and Schroeder 2002), the park protects numerous springs and 10 natural areas. The natural areas in the park are designated under the auspices of the Missouri Department of Conservation. Natural areas are selected to represent rare or exemplary relatively undisturbed assemblages of animals, plants, and physical features. For this reason, invasive plant management on the park is typically prioritized towards these areas.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOzark Plants is a full-color field guide to over 500 plant species found in the Ozark Mountain region of southern Missouri, northern Arkansas, and the northeastern corner of Oklahoma. Illustrated with hundreds of color photographs, the book describes each plant followed by a discussion of the plant's distribution, habitat, and value for wildlife and livestock. A key is provided so that the reader may more easily identify unknown plant specimens. The Ozark region is a plateau and mountain area of more than 40,000 square miles at the western edge of the eastern deciduous forest, and host a rich assemblage of plant species. Overall, nearly 3,300 vascular plant species are known from the region, within approximately 1066 genera and 186 families. This diversity is due, in part, to a long presence uninterrupted by glaciation, varied site and soil conditions, and a midcontinental geographic position. This geographical location has resulted in many species with distributional centers outside of the Ozarks reaching their range limits here. For example, the range of certain plants from the southwestern United States extends to the Ozarks, typically in dry-soil environments such as the glades. On moist, north-facing slopes, plants from the northern and eastern United States may be found. Some typically southern species occur in special habitats, including many parts of the Boston Mountains.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis collection of papers analyzes the Pioneer Forest, a privately owned 150,000-acre working forest in the Missouri Ozarks, on which the science and art of forest management has been practiced for more than 50 years. The papers discuss how this half century of management has contributed to forest restoration and sustainability on the forest itself and, through its example undergirded by a remarkable body of research, throughout the Ozark region and beyond.
