Evolutionary Ecology: The Trinidadian Guppy
ISBN: 9780198527862 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book celebrates the guppy's unique contribution to evolutionary ecology. Ever since Caryl Haskins described guppy populations as a 'natural experiment' because of the way predation pressure varies over a small geographical area, generations of researchers have been drawn to Trinidad to investigate evolution in the wild. The species continues to provide classic examples of natural selection in action and elegantly illustrates how ecology, evolution, and behaviour are interlinked.
Anne Magurran's account of the evolutionary ecology of the guppy integrates historical breakthroughs with... This book celebrates the guppy's unique contribution to evolutionary ecology. Ever since Caryl Haskins described guppy populations as a 'natural exper...

Ecological Diversity and Its Measurement
ISBN: 9780691084916 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Ecological diversity, or the variety and abundance of species in different habitats and communities, is one of the central themes of ecology. However, much of the existing literature on this subject is diffuse, often confusing, and in many cases complicated by unnecessarily difficult mathematics. This book aims to provide a succinct and clear summary of the relevant literature and a practical guide to the measurement of diversity. The author discusses the methods of describing ecological diversity in conjunction with specific recommendations for the selection and interpretation...

Biological Diversity: Frontiers in Measurement and Assessment
ISBN: 9780199580668 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Biological Diversity provides an up-to-date, authoritative review of the methods of measuring and assessing biological diversity, together with their application. The book's emphasis is on quantifying the variety, abundance, and occurrence of taxa, and on providing objective and clear guidance for both scientists and managers. This is a fast-moving field and one that is the focus of intense research interest. However the rapid development of new methods, the inconsistent and sometimes confusing application of old ones, and the lack of consensus in the literature about the best approach, means...

Ecological Diversity and Its Measurement
ISBN: 9789401573603 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 179 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Although diversity is one of the central themes of ecology there is considerable disagreement ab out how it should be measured. I first encountered this problem 10 ycars ago whcn I started my research career and spent a long time pouring ovcr the literature in order to find the most useful techniques. The intervening decade has seen a further increasc in the number ofpapers devoted to the topic of ecological diversity but has led to no consensus on how it should be measured. My aim in writing this book is therefore to provide a practical guide to ecological diversity and its measurement. In a...

Evolution of Biological Diversity
ISBN: 9780198503040 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Recent studies have discovered considerable genetic and morphological variation between and within populations of the same species. Yet the relation between this intraspecific variation and the processes of speciation remains poorly understood. When, how, and why do new species arrive?Evolution of Biological Diversity, with a prominent assortment of contributors, is an extensive review of the most recent research into this and other questions of biological diversity and the processes of speciation. Major chapters explore how variation occurs within species by emphasizing the ecological and...
