| Description: |
Problems of scale have exercised the minds of ecologists for many years. This volume deals with this subject and with mathematical approaches to improve our understanding of complex ecological systems. It also focuses on monitoring the responses of ecosystems, especially to human impacts upon them. |
| Synopsis: |
This volume offers selected contributions to the 8th International Congress of Ecology to illuminate large-scale ecological problems and discuss how these can be managed through a variety of planning processes. From mathematical approaches to improve understanding of complex ecosystems, to monitoring activity and human impact, this book covers a truly global range of issues. The book concludes with a summary of the Congress, and a discussion of possible future directions. |
