内容説明

The variety of techniques available which environmental scientists and managers can use to model environmental change are described in this handbook. The book begins by defining ecological systems and their dynamics, before outlining modelling techniques and their inter-relationships. The author then looks at systems analysis and the various types of models which can be used. The book will be of value to a wide range of environmental scientists using modelling techniques, and its handbook approach will be a useful tool to people in a number of related fields.
