  • What Does Graptolite Origination and Extinction Reveal about the Cause of the Late Ordovician Mass Extinction?

    by Charles E. Mitchell, H. David Sheets, Michael J. Melchin, Chris Holmden ...
    Series series Elements of Paleontology
    Assesses the macroevolutionary turnover of paleotropical planktic graptolites during the Late Ordovician Mass Extinction (LOME) via automated sequencing and capture-mark-recapture modeling. Graptolites exhibited a succession of turnover pulses (sensu Elizabeth Vrba) that were coincident with the main phases of the Hirnantian glaciation and during which the Diplograptina experienced declining ...

  • Geometric Morphometrics for Biologists

    A Primer

    by Miriam Zelditch, Donald Swiderski, H. David Sheets ...
    The first edition of Geometric Morphometrics for Biologists has been the primary resource for teaching modern geometric methods of shape analysis to biologists who have a stronger background in biology than in multivariate statistics and matrix algebra. These geometric methods are appealing to biologists who approach the study of shape from a variety of perspectives, from clinical to evolutionary, ... Read more

  • Stratigraphic Paleobiology

    Understanding the Distribution of Fossil Taxa in Time and Space

    by Mark E. Patzkowsky, Steven M. Holland ...
    Whether the fossil record should be read at face value or whether it presents a distorted view of the history of life is an argument seemingly as old as many fossils themselves. In the late 1700s, Georges Cuvier argued for a literal interpretation, but in the early 1800s, Charles Lyell's gradualist view of the earth's history required a more nuanced interpretation of that same record. To this day, ... Read more

  • Water Quality Indices

    by Tabassum Abbasi, S. A. Abbasi ...
    This book covers water quality indices (WQI) in depth – it describes what purpose they serve, how they are generated, what are their strengths and weaknesses, and how to make the best use of them. It is a concise and unique guide to WQIs for chemists, chemical/environmental engineers and government officials. Whereas it is easy to express the quantity of water, it is very difficult to express its ... Read more

  • Stream Hydrology

    An Introduction for Ecologists

    by Nancy D. Gordon, Thomas A. McMahon, Brian L. Finlayson, Christopher J. Gippel, Rory J. Nathan ...
    Since the publication of the first edition (1994) there have been rapid developments in the application of hydrology, geomorphology and ecology to stream management. In particular, growth has occurred in the areas of stream rehabilitation and the evaluation of environmental flow needs. The concept of stream health has been adopted as a way of assessing stream resources and setting management goals ... Read more

  • The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index

    by Nathalie Pettorelli ...
    There has been a recent surge of interest in remote sensing and its use in ecology and conservation but this is the first book to focus explicitly on the NDVI (Normalised Difference Vegetation Index), a simple numerical indicator and powerful tool that can be used to assess spatio-temporal changes in green vegetation. The NDVI opens the possibility of addressing questions on scales inaccessible to ... Read more

  • Forest Hydrology

    Processes, Management and Assessment

    Edited by Professor Leon Bren, Devendra Amatya, Professor Thomas Williams, Professor Carmen de Jong, Ge Sun ...
    Forests cover about a third of the world's land surface area. They represent a distinct biotic community, provide a living for many millions of people, and provide fresh water to sustain communities. Forests capture part of the precipitation and pass the remainder into the soil. Some of this is then passed back to the atmosphere along with some to streams as a regulated outflow. Forest cover is ... Read more

    Simulation and Prediction

    by Xiaoqiu Chen ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book deals with phenology, the study of recurring biological life cycle stages, and especially their timing and relationships with biotic and abiotic forces. Given the theoretical and methodological innovations involved, the chapters on defining spatiotemporal patterns of plant phenology and constructing daily temperature-based temporal/spatial models and process-based regional unified models ...

  • The Timetree of Life

    by S. Blair Hedges, Sudhir Kumar ...
    The evolutionary history of life includes two primary components: phylogeny and timescale. Phylogeny refers to the branching order (relationships) of species or other taxa within a group and is crucial for understanding the inheritance of traits and for erecting classifications. However, a timescale is equally important because it provides a way to compare phylogeny directly with the evolution of ... Read more
