内容説明

This book provides a current synthesis of principles and applications in landscape ecology and conservation biology. Bringing together insights from leaders in landscape ecology and conservation biology, it explains how principles of landscape ecology can help us understand, manage and maintain biodiversity. Gutzwiller also identifies gaps in current knowledge and provides research approaches to fill those voids.

内容説明

This volume brings together contributions from leaders in landscape ecology and addresses the issue of how what we know about landscape ecology can help us understand, manage and maintain biodiversity. It is divided into six parts, concluding with a synthesis and drawing conclusions about the utility of the landscape approach to conservation. It is designed as a resource for study and reference for ecologists, conservation biologists and landscape managers.
