Aimed at students and instructors, alongside practitioners and researchers, in landscape architecture and its allied disciplinary fields, this book provides the reader with a clear framework of theoretical and practical considerations for interpreting and designing post-industrial landscapes. One of the biggest contemporary challenges currently faced in the profession is how to effectively understand and work with the transformational possibilities of post-industrial landscapes, while negotiating significant spatial challenges, such as degradation and fragmentation. Transformative Ground: A Field Guide to the Post-Industrial Landscape presents a range of theoretical perspectives and practical approaches, offering a broad scope of contemporary design strategies that deal with post-industrial landscapes. Through a series of thematic chapters, allied with precedents from leading design offices, this book identifies how the context of post-industrial landscapes has compelled shifts in fundamental ideas that underpin landscape design. As a richly illustrated account of this transformative ground, this book provides a must-have guide to help you reimagine the post-industrial landscape.

Representatives of the family Cystiphyllidae are important components of the rugose coral faunas of Lower and Middle Devonian sequences in western Canada and eastern Australia, but, with a few exceptions, have received little detailed study. Taxa considered here are assigned to 14 genera, of which Ogmophylloides, Kluaphyllum, Tropalicystis and Variocystis are new. Among the 30 species described, new forms comprise Cystiphylloides calnanense, C. tetsaense, Ogmophylloides taylori, Nardophyllum cavanense, Kluaphyllum sulcatum, Microplasma fromense McLean and Wright, M. nabeschense, M. hedingeri, Cystiplasma curraense, Loboplasma sutchersense McLean and Wright, Digonophyllum clarkense, Lekanophyllum nordlingense, L. robbense, Variocystis caribouensis, and Agastophyllum parvum. One form from eastern Canada is also included, with the type material of the Lower Devonian Cayugaea whiteavesiana Lambe revised. In addition, thin sections of the type species of Zonophyllum, Pseudozonophyllum, Digonophyllum, Lekanophyllum, Atelophyllum, Dialytophyllum and Enteleiophyllum, from the Middle Devonian of the Eifel, Germany, are illustrated photographically for the first time. Stratigraphic framework for the studied taxa from western Canada and eastern Australia is reviewed, together with their biostratigraphic ranges derived from published and unpublished conodont data.
