Scaling Relations in Experimental Ecology
AvRobert H. Gardner,W. Michael. Kempm. fl.
Inbunden, Engelska, 2001

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This book discusses the impact of recent advances in the theory of "scaling relationships" and identifies critical issues that must be considered if experimental results are used to understand the temporal and spatial scales of actual ecosystems. The complexity of ecosystems complicates experimental design. How, for example, does a scientist draw boundaries when studying species effects and interactions? Once these boundaries are drawn, how does one treat factors external to that study? Will the failure to consider external factors affect one's ability to extrapolate information across temporal and spatial scales? This volume provides a compilation from a broad range of ecologists with extensive experimental research experience that addresses these and other questions of scaling relations.

Enclosed Experimental Ecosystems and Scale
Tools for Understanding and Managing Coastal Ecosystems

Enclosed ecosystem experiments have gained in popularity as research tools in ecological science, particularly in the study of coastal aquatic environments. These systems provide scientists with a degree of experimental control that is not achievable through field experiments. Yet to date, techniques for systematically extrapolating results from small-scale experimental ecosystems to larger, deeper, more open, more biologically diverse, and more heterogeneous ecosystems in nature have not been well developed. Likewise, researchers have lacked methods for comparing and extrapolating information among natural ecosystems that differ in scale.Enclosed Experimental Ecosystems and Scale: Tools for Understanding and Managing Coastal Ecosystems provides scientists, managers, and policy makers with an introduction to what has been termed the "problem of scale", and presents information that will allow for improved design and interpretation of enclosed experimental aquatic ecosystems. The book integrates the results of a 10-year research project involving a multi-disciplinary team of scientists and students to explore scale-related questions in a variety of coastal habitats. Anticipating use as a reference, the book has been designed so that individual sections and individual pages can function as stand alone units.

The Zoogeography of North American Freshwater Fishes Edited by Charles H. Hocutt and E. O. Wiley "Zoogeography belongs in every college, agency, and major public library." --Wisconsin Academy Review ".There is little doubt that this book will come to be accepted as a 'classic' in North American ichthyological literature." --Journal of Biogeography "All the contributors are to be congratulated on this fascinating and scholarly publication." --Aquaculture and Fisheries Management 1986 (0 471-86419-6) 866 pp. Marine Fauna and Flora of Bermuda A Systematic Guide to the Identification of Marine Organisms Edited by Wolfgang Sterrer ".a beautifully illustrated work." --International Journal of Crustacean Research "Marine Fauna and Flora of Bermuda fully gives what the editor stated as its purpose: 'to reveal the beauty and order in marine life by introducing the reader to the organisms that inhabit the ocean around Bermuda.' The book will have much use beyond these waters. It well deserves to be highly recommended to 'scientists, teachers, students, and other nature lovers' for whom it was designed to serve as a guide" --Helgolander Meeresuntersuchungen 1986 (0 471-82336-8) 742 pp.Energy and Resource Quality The Ecology of the Economic Process Charles A. S. Hall, Cutler J. Cleveland, and Robert Kaufmann ".The entire text is a pleasure to read. This is a first class textbook in which all the major socioeconomic energy issues are examined in a way which makes the reader reassess his own position and attitudes. Highly suitable for energy-related courses at the university level and a valuable source book for libraries." --Energy World 1986 (0 471-08790-4) 577 pp.
