  • Resilience and Stability of Ecological and Social Systems

    by István Karsai, Thomas Schmickl, George Kampis ...
    This monograph, co-authored by three longtime collaborators, aims to promote the interdisciplinary field of mathematical biology by providing accessible new approaches to study natural systems. As there is currently scarce literature on the applications of mathematical modelling for biology research, this book presents a new way of studying interactions at the level of populations, societies, ...

  • Food Webs

    by Kevin S. McCann ...
    Series Book 50 - Monographs in Population Biology
    Human impacts are dramatically altering our natural ecosystems but the exact repercussions on ecological sustainability and function remain unclear. As a result, food web theory has experienced a proliferation of research seeking to address these critical areas. Arguing that the various recent and classical food web theories can be looked at collectively and in a highly consistent and testable way ... Read more

  • From Populations to Ecosystems

    Theoretical Foundations for a New Ecological Synthesis

    by Michel Loreau ...
    Series Book 46 - Monographs in Population Biology
    The major subdisciplines of ecology--population ecology, community ecology, ecosystem ecology, and evolutionary ecology--have diverged increasingly in recent decades. What is critically needed today is an integrated, real-world approach to ecology that reflects the interdependency of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. From Populations to Ecosystems proposes an innovative theoretical synthesis ... Read more

  • Collective Animal Behavior

    by David J. T. Sumpter ...
    Fish travel in schools, birds migrate in flocks, honeybees swarm, and ants build trails. How and why do these collective behaviors occur? Exploring how coordinated group patterns emerge from individual interactions, Collective Animal Behavior reveals why animals produce group behaviors and examines their evolution across a range of species.Providing a synthesis of mathematical modeling, ...

  • Remote Sensing of Plant Biodiversity

    Edited by Jeannine Cavender-Bares, John A. Gamon, Philip A. Townsend ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This Open Access volume aims to methodologically improve our understanding of biodiversity by linking disciplines that incorporate remote sensing, and uniting data and perspectives in the fields of biology, landscape ecology, and geography. The book provides a framework for how biodiversity can be detected and evaluated—focusing particularly on plants—using proximal and remotely sensed ... Read more

  • Models of the Ecological Hierarchy

    From Molecules to the Ecosphere

    by Ferenc Jordan, Sven Erik Jørgensen ...
    Series Book 25 - Developments in Environmental Modelling
    In the application of statistics to ecological inference problems, hierarchical models combine explicit models of ecological system structure or dynamics with models of how ecological systems are observed. The principles of hierarchical modeling are applied in this book to a wide range of problems ranging from the molecular level, through populations, ecosystems, landscapes, networks, through to ...

  • Landscape Ecology in Theory and Practice

    Pattern and Process

    by Monica G. Turner, Robert H. Gardner ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This work provides in-depth analysis of the origins of landscape ecology and its close alignment with the understanding of scale, the causes of landscape pattern, and the interactions of spatial pattern with a variety of ecological processes. The text covers the quantitative approaches that are applied widely in landscape studies, with emphasis on their appropriate use and interpretation.The field ... Read more

  • Resolving Ecosystem Complexity

    by Oswald J. Schmitz ...
    Series Book 47 - Monographs in Population Biology
    An ecosystem's complexity develops from the vast numbers of species interacting in ecological communities. The nature of these interactions, in turn, depends on environmental context. How do these components together influence an ecosystem's behavior as a whole? Can ecologists resolve an ecosystem's complexity in order to predict its response to disturbances? Resolving Ecosystem Complexity ... Read more

  • Metacommunity Ecology

    by Mathew A. Leibold, Jonathan M. Chase ...
    Series Book 59 - Monographs in Population Biology
    Metacommunity ecology links smaller-scale processes that have been the provenance of population and community ecology—such as birth-death processes, species interactions, selection, and stochasticity—with larger-scale issues such as dispersal and habitat heterogeneity. Until now, the field has focused on evaluating the relative importance of distinct processes, with niche-based environmental ... Read more
