  • Biodiversity Offsets

    European Perspectives on No Net Loss of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book deals with the new concept of biodiversity offsets. The aim of offsetting schemes is to achieve no let loss or even net gain of biodiversity. Offsets obey a mitigation hierarchy and reflect the precautionary and polluter-pays principle in regard to project impacts.Readers gain insights into current debates on biodiversity policies, with top experts outlining theoretical principles and ...

  • Recovering Biodiversity in Indian Forests

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book demonstrates how varying levels of human disturbance manifested through different management regimes influence composition, richness, diversity and abundance of key mammal, bird and plant species, even within ecologically similar habitats. Based on our results, we show the critical importance of the ‘wildlife preservation’ approach for effective biodiversity conservation. The study also ... Leer más

  • Evolution in the Dark

    Darwin's Loss Without Selection

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book provides fascinating insights into the development and genetics of evolutionary processes on the basis of animals living in the dark, such as the Astyanax cave fish.Biologically functionless traits show high variability, which results from neutral deleterious mutations no longer being eliminated by natural selection, which normally acts to preserve functional capability. These negative ... Leer más

  • Distribution Ecology

    From Individual Habitat Use to Species Biogeographical Range

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book brings together a set of approaches to the study of individual-species ecology based on the analysis of spatial variations of abundance. Distribution ecology assumes that ecological phenomena can be understood when analyzing the extrinsic (environmental) or intrinsic (physiological constraints, population mechanisms) that correlate with this spatial variation. Ecological processes depend ... Leer más

  • Robustness, Plasticity, and Evolvability in Mammals

    A Thermal Niche Approach

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Among the unresolved topics in evolutionary biology and behavioral ecology are the origins, mechanisms, evolution, and consequences of developmental and phenotypic diversity. In an attempt to address these challenges, plasticity has been investigated empirically and theoretically at all levels of biological organization—from biochemical to whole organism and beyond to the population, community, ...

  • Biology and Conservation of Horseshoe Crabs

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Horseshoe crabs, those mysterious ancient mariners, lured me into the sea as a child along the beaches of New Jersey. Drawn to their shiny domed shells and spiked tails, I could not resist picking them up, turning them over and watching the wondrous mechanical movement of their glistening legs, articulating with one another as smoothly as the inner working of a clock. What was it like to be a ... Leer más

  • Biogeography of Australasia

    A Molecular Analysis

    de Michael Heads ...
    Over the last decade, molecular studies carried out on the Australasian biota have revealed a new world of organic structure that exists from submicroscopic to continental scale. Furthermore, in studies of global biogeography and evolution, DNA sequencing has shown that many large groups, such as flowering plants, passerine birds and squamates, have their basal components in this area. Using ... Leer más
