Life on Surtsey : Iceland's upstart island  Cover Image Book Book

Life on Surtsey : Iceland's upstart island / Loree Griffin Burns.

Summary:

"In this addition to the Scientists in the Field series, readers join scientists as they tackle something unusual in the world of ecosystems: colonization. Not a colonization by people, but one of cells, seeds, spores, and other life forms that blow in, fly in, float in, and struggle to survive on the beautiful but harsh new island of Surtsey."-- Provided by publisher.
