Dhofar: Sultanate of Oman: Monsoon Mountains to Sand Seas

Description:

Celebrating the natural diversity of Oman's Dhofar region. The Governorate of Dhofar, Oman's southern province, stretches from Salalah in the south, across the monsoon mountains and up to the Empty Quarter in the north. Today there are a wide range of programmes to conserve species such as the iconic Arabian leopard and the Arabian humpback whale. These studies involve government organisations, environmental NGOs, eco-tourists and volunteers.

This beautiful book combines high quality photography with an informative narrative to present the region's diverse landscapes, climate, water resources, flora, fauna, peoples and natural resource management.
