ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-75836-9 Note générale : DOI:10.1017/9781139028271 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : R (Computer program language)  Models  Forecasting  Biodiversity  Habitats  Geographical distribution  Ecology  Resource conservation Résumé : La 4ème de couverture indique : "This book introduces the key stages of niche-based habitat suitability model building, evaluation and prediction required for understanding and predicting future patterns of species and biodiversity. Beginning with the main theory behind ecological niches and species distributions, the book proceeds through all major steps of model building, from conceptualization and model training to model evaluation and spatio-temporal predictions. Extensive examples using R support graduate students and researchers in quantifying ecological niches and predicting species distributions with their own data, and help to address key environmental and conservation problems. Reflecting this highly active field of research, the book incorporates the latest developments from informatics and statistics, as well as using data from remote sources such as satellite imagery. A website at www.unil.ch/hsdm contains the codes and supporting material required to run the examples and teach courses."

Birds and climate change: impacts and conservation responses / James W. Pearce-Higgins (2014)  

Public ISBD Titre : Birds and climate change: impacts and conservation responses Type de document : livre Auteurs : James W. Pearce-Higgins, Auteur ; Rhys E. Green, Auteur Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2014 Collection : Ecology, biodiversity and conservation Importance : 467 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-13219-0 Prix : 45.99 GBP Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Birds  Climate change  Animal conservation  Biodiversity Résumé : From the red grouse to the Ethiopian bush-crow, bird populations around the world can provide us with vital insights into the effects of climate change on species and ecosystems. They are among the best studied and monitored of organisms, yet many are already under threat of extinction as a result of habitat loss, overexploitation and pollution. Providing a single source of information for students, scientists, practitioners and policy-makers, this book begins with a critical review of the existing impacts of climate change on birds, including changes in the timing of migration and breeding and effects on bird populations around the world. The second part considers how conservationists can assess potential future impacts, quantifying how extinction risk is linked to the magnitude of global change and synthesising the evidence in support of likely conservation responses. The final chapters assess the threats posed by efforts to reduce the magnitude of climate change.

Mapping species distributions: spatial inference and prediction / Janet Franklin (2009)  

Public ISBD Titre : Mapping species distributions: spatial inference and prediction Type de document : livre Auteurs : Janet Franklin, Auteur ; Miller, Jennifer A., Auteur Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2009 Collection : Ecology, biodiversity and conservation Importance : 320 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-70002-3 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biogeography  Mathematical models Résumé : Maps of species' distributions or habitat suitability are required for many aspects of environmental research, resource management and conservation planning. These include biodiversity assessment, reserve design, habitat management and restoration, species and habitat conservation plans and predicting the effects of environmental change on species and ecosystems. The proliferation of methods and uncertainty regarding their effectiveness can be daunting to researchers, resource managers and conservation planners alike. Franklin summarises the methods used in species distribution modeling (also called niche modeling) and presents a framework for spatial prediction of species distributions based on the attributes (space, time, scale) of the data and questions being asked. The framework links theoretical ecological models of species distributions to spatial data on species and environment, and statistical models used for spatial prediction. Providing practical guidelines to students, researchers and practitioners in a broad range of environmental sciences including ecology, geography, conservation biology, and natural resources management.

Nonequilibrium ecology / Rohde, K. (2005)  

Public ISBD Titre : Nonequilibrium ecology Type de document : livre Auteurs : Rohde, K. Mention d'édition : 01 éd. Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2005 Collection : Ecology, biodiversity and conservation Importance : 223 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-67455-3 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé en rayon le 28/05/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biological competition  Ecology Résumé : Ecology has long been shaped by ideas that stress the sharing of resources and the competition for those resources, and by the assumption that populations and communities typically exist under equilibrium conditions in habitats saturated with both individuals and species. However, much evidence contradicts these assumptions and it is likely that nonequilibrium is much more widespread than might be expected. This book is unique in focusing on nonequilibrium aspects of ecology, providing evidence for nonequilibrium and equilibrium in populations (and metapopulations), in extant communities and in ecological systems over evolutionary time, including nonequilibrium due to recent and present mass extinctions. The assumption that competition is of overriding importance is central to equilibrium ecology, and much space is devoted to its discussion. As communities of some taxa appear to be shaped more by competition than others, an attempt is made to find an explanation for these differences.
