Add to basketHardcover. Condition: VG. No Jacket. 1st ed. Green cloth cover. 73 pp.; ex-Colonial Office/ Foreign & Commonwealth Office library with 2 lib. numbers to front pastedown,former's impressed stamps to top front and back covers, latter's small 'withdrawn' stamp bottom front endpaper, verso t.p. has a faint early oval purple official stamp 'Supplied for the Public Service', faint lib.label ghost bottom spine (faint tiny paper fragments and cloth a tad lighter). Given the nature of the book this provenance struck me as interesting and so I ignored it for rating purposes. Otherwise internally clean, tight & unmarked, front cover and spine clean and unworn, back cover has a few minor surface marks. Almost exclusively concerned with the potential of the British Guinana (now Guynana) forests for economic expoitation by logging with full sruvey of available timbers, economics of their extraction and possible uses. Hardly an ecologically sensitive work therefore! Apparently scarce.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the problem of erosion along the Guyanese coast, especially as it relates to coastal engineering. The author begins by describing the layers of the local coastline, which are composed of marine alluvium with areas of windblown sand dunes, then discusses the physical changes to the coastline over time. The author posits that the erosion that has taken place in recent decades is primarily caused by artificial forces and not natural ones. The book goes on to explain how existing sea defenses were not only ineffective but were actively causing erosion, and that these defenses were largely built without proper planning or supervision. The author then outlines a proposal for a comprehensive scheme of permanent protection works, which encompasses a new sea wall reinforced with concrete and the construction of groynes to build up the natural protection of the shore and prevent erosion. The author concludes by discussing the scheme's implementation and results since its partial completion in 1919. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in coastal engineering, erosion control, or the history of Guyana. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the role of coastal sand dunes and explores the potential impacts when inland movement of dunes occurs. The author highlights the benefits that man-made sand barriers can have in preventing erosion and devastation caused by the inland movement of dunes. Case studies from around the world illustrate the detrimental effects caused by the loss of vegetation on dunes. The devastating impact of loss of natural vegetation on sand dunes, such as forests, is examined through historical examples. Other topics include methods for sand dune reclamation, the utility of vegetation for fixing sand dunes, and preventative measures for coastal protection. The book explores both the negative effects of sand dune movement and the positive effects of using man-made sand barriers to prevent erosion, making it an invaluable resource for coastal engineers, environmentalists, and policymakers. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
