Jebel Hafit : a natural history
This seminal volume offers the first multidisciplinary scientific survey of Jebel Hafit, the limestone mountain that dominates the skyline of Al Ain and straddles the border between the United Arab Emirates and Oman. Edited by two of the region’s most distinguished naturalists, the work consolidates decades of field research into a singular record of the mountain's unique biodiversity, geology, and archaeology. It serves as a critical defense for the conservation of the \"island mountain\" ecosystem, which serves as a refuge for rare and endemic species in a rapidly developing desert landscape.

The island of Abu Al Abyad
This multidisciplinary scientific monograph provides the first exhaustive ecological assessment of Abu Al Abyad, the largest offshore island in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. Written by a team of ten specialists, the work documents a unique \"living laboratory\" where traditional desert ecosystems meet managed conservation efforts. The study is particularly significant for its record of the island’s transformation from a barren landscape into a thriving sanctuary for indigenous and exotic wildlife under the patronage of the UAE leadership.
