  • Multiple Stable States in Natural Ecosystems

    by Peter Petraitis ...
    One of the most interesting and vexing problems in ecology is how distinctly different communities of plants and animals can occur in the same ecosystem. The theory of these systems, known as multiple stable states, is well understood, but whether multiple stable states actually exist in nature has remained a hotly debated subject. Multiple Stable States in Natural Ecosystems provides a broad and ... Read more

  • Distribution Ecology

    From Individual Habitat Use to Species Biogeographical Range

    by Marcelo Hernán Cassini ...
    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 ... Read more

  • Landslide Ecology

    by Lawrence R. Walker, Aaron B. Shiels ...
    Series series Ecology, Biodiversity and Conservation
    Despite their often dangerous and unpredictable nature, landslides provide fascinating templates for studying how soil organisms, plants and animals respond to such destruction. The emerging field of landslide ecology helps us understand these responses, aiding slope stabilisation and restoration and contributing to the progress made in geological approaches to landslide prediction and mitigation. ...
