Sobre IBD

Forest ecology can be defined as the interaction of flora and fauna in forests. Forests can be of various types according to location and climate, and the patterns of conservation, preservation and analysis of forest ecosystems change according to these factors. The objective of this book is to give a general view of the different areas of forest ecology. It explores all the important aspects of this field in the present day scenario and provides significant information of this discipline to help develop a comprehensive understanding. It includes contributions of experts and scientists which will provide innovative insights into this field. This book on forest ecology will prove to be thought-provoking for students and researchers in the fields of ecological risk assessment, wildlife conservation and ecosystem engineering.

    Bret C. Harvey / Steven F. Railsback
    Ecologists now recognize that the dynamics of populations, communities, and ecosystems are strongly affected by adaptive individual behaviors. Yet until now, we have lacked effective and flexible methods for modeling such dynamics. Traditional ecological models become impractical with the inclusion of behavior, and the optimization approaches of behavioral ecology cannot be use...
