Adaptive food webs : stability and transitions of real and model ecosystems Cover Image Book Book

Adaptive food webs : stability and transitions of real and model ecosystems

Moore, John C. (John Christopher), (editor.). De Ruiter, Peter C., (editor.). McCann, Kevin S., (editor.). Wolters, Volkmar, (editor.).

Summary: Presenting new approaches to studying food webs, this book uses practical management and policy examples to demonstrate the theory behind ecosystem management decisions and the broader issue of sustainability. All the information readers need to use food web analyses as a tool for understanding and quantifying transition processes is provided.
