Summary, etc. |
"The book's main aim is to teach the basic principles of ecology and to relate these principles to many of the earth's ecological challenges, of which there are many. For example, climate change threatens to warm many areas of the globe and change precipitation patterns. The ranges of species as diverse as birds and butterflies have changed in response to global warming. Invasive species, from plants to pythons, outcompete many native species in all areas of the planet. Overhunting has caused numerous fish stocks to plummet. Pollution has impacted many aquatic animals. Most chapters include a "Global Insight" feature that highlights how such global change is important in all areas of ecology, from organismal to ecosystem ecology." - Provided by the author |
