Strictly speaking, biogeography is a branch of biology, but physical geographers have made important contributions, particularly in the study of flora.
The population substructuring patterns observed in the migratory locusts, as reported here and in Chapuis et al. [ 23], are of general significance both for locust research and for phylogeographical study of flora and fauna in China and beyond, and are illustrating for widespread species with strong dispersal ability.
Our results are of general significance both for locust research and for phylogeographical study of flora and fauna in China, illustrating the potential importance of phylogeographical history in shaping the divergence and distribution patterns of widespread species with strong dispersal ability.
Results from this research are important for current and future resource assessments, biological conservation and wildlife habitat management, biodiversity studies of flora and fauna, microclimatic research, future studies on edges and their importance in landscape design and analysis.
The investigation program of Georesearch Volcanedo on the caldera floor included researching the visible effects of the smaller eruptions which had taken place on the caldera floor since 1815, temperature measurements (air, soil, gases), gas measurements, studies of flora and fauna and measurement of weather data.
On his return to the U.S., he made a systematic study of the flora of the Southeast to include as part of his Flora.
The number of plant species is likely to exceed 2,000, although no comprehensive study of the flora of Central Chile has been undertaken.
Study of burn flora is not only helpful in locating entry of multidrug resistant bacterial strains into the unit's usual flora but also in determining current antibiotic susceptibilities.

We review and trace here the historical aspects and developments leading to the currently available artificial mouth systems and discuss their contribution to the study of oral flora, especially related to many variants of dental caries.
Onshore, the situation was the same: the initial comprehensive study of the flora and fauna of Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge only took place in the mid-1980s, afthe the Reagan administration made a push to open it up to development -- and (irony of ironies) the disastrous 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill was what saved the refuge from industrial exploitation.
