Nature
All about the fauna and flora of the Community
Andalusia is one of the richest regions in terms of biological diversity, not only in the Iberian Peninsula, but also in the entire Mediterranean area.
Geological history, the formation of the Mediterranean, the glaciations during the Quaternary period and its present day relief, its proximity to Africa to the south and its connection with the Hercynian massif, its extensive Mediterranean and Atlantic coastline, all combine to form a region with a tremendous wealth of landscapes, history, flora and fauna. Needless to say, reflecting this immense biodiversity in a single work represents a major challenge, and this is the first time in the modern age at least that such a feat has been achieved.
The Nature series of The Andalusian Project offers specialized professionals and lay readers alike an in-depth and scientific insight into a range of topics and data related to the region’s flora and fauna. No other work offers such a wealth of detail as that to be found in these volumes.

botany
Coordinated from the University of Granada, but with the participation of authors of the different Andalusian universities, this series covers not only general subjects such as vegetal evolution, taxonomy, nomenclature, etc., but also applications of interest for the region, like the importance of the seaweeds in the aquaculture.

ecoloGY
Andalusia has all gradients. From east to west, it reflects the differences between the Atlantic mists and the Mediterranean, influenced by the African desert. From south to north, in a short time you go from the high peaks to the most astonishing deserts, from the snow to the beach.
These volumes devoted to the ecology of Andalusia, emerge from that inspiration.

geologY
It is remarkable the inclusion in this work of several geological itineraries in the chapters dedicated to the description of the geological characteristics of the distinct areas. These itineraries aim to offer to the reader the possibility to do some routes by car or by foot , in which he will be able to observe the most significant features described in each chapter.

zooloGY
The Zoology series of the Proyecto Andalucía is mainly directed to a non skilled public, but without forgetting an in depth treatment of the subjects and scientific rigour, so that the professional can find specifi data on the fauna of the Community, which is difficult to find gathered and with the degree of detail that gives in this work.
