Models in Ecosystem Science

Edited by Charles D. Canham, Jonathan J. Cole, William K. Lauenroth ...

Quantitative models are crucial to almost every area of ecosystem science. They provide a logical structure that guides and informs empirical observations of ecosystem processes. They play a particularly crucial role in synthesizing and integrating our understanding of the immense diversity of ecosystem structure and function. Increasingly, models are being called on to predict the effects of ... Read more

The Theory of Ecological Communities

by Mark Vellend ...

Series Book 57 - Monographs in Population Biology
A plethora of different theories, models, and concepts make up the field of community ecology. Amid this vast body of work, is it possible to build one general theory of ecological communities? What other scientific areas might serve as a guiding framework? As it turns out, the core focus of community ecology—understanding patterns of diversity and composition of biological variants across space ... Read more
