This book provides a synthetic view of an emerging area of ecology and biogeography, linking individual- and population-level processes to geographic distributions and biodiversity patterns. Problems in evolutionary ecology, macroecology, and biogeography are illuminated by this…
Wildlife Habitat Management: Concepts and Applications in Forestry presents an integrated reference combining silvicultural and forest planning principles with principles of habitat ecology and conservation biology. With extensive references and case studies drawn from real situ…

"This book provides a unique synthesis of the methods and techniques available for the study of populations and ecosystems. Techniques used to obtain both absolute and relative population estimates are described, and approaches to the direct measurement of births, deaths, migrat…
"This book collates and synthesises the highly scattered and diverse global literature on pure and applied aspects of habitats and their biota. It examines the ecology of temporary waters in both natural and human environments, and seeks to identify common evolutionary themes. I…
"The Biology of Caves and other Subterranean Habitats offers a concise but comprehensive introduction to cave ecology. Whilst there is an emphasis on the organisms that dominate this unique environment, conservation and management aspects are also considered. The book includes a…
Human induced biodiversity loss is greater now than at any time in human history, with extinctions occurring at rates hundreds of times higher than background extinction levels. The field of biodiversity economics analyses the socio-economic causes of and solutions to biodiversi…
Provides extensive information on natural disturbance ecology, spatial patterns in forested landscapes, connectivity, riparian areas and wetlands, interior habitat, biodiversity and old growth forests, the dead wood cycle, and edge effects for land management practitioners.
Bogen indeholder kun få linier om hver art: Latinsk navn, amerikansk trivialnavn, hvilken familie arten tilhører, den udbredelse i USA. For halvdelen af de nævnte arter oplyses også med et enkelt ord for hver: farmakologisk virkning (f.eks. astringent, tonic), lidelse, som plant…
