Editeur : Malden : Blackwell Année de publication : 2007 Importance : 407 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-4051-2146-0 Note générale : ISBN-10 : 1-4051-2146-7 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Animal population Wildlife conservation Wildlife management Résumé : Conservation of Wildlife Populations provides an accessible introduction to the most relevant concepts and principles for solving real-world management problems in wildlife and conservation biology. Bringing together insights from traditionally disparate disciplines, the book shows how population biology addresses important questions involving the harvest, monitoring, and conservation of wildlife populations. This book covers the most up-to-date approaches for assessing factors that affect both population growth and interactions with other species, including predation, genetic changes, harvest, introduced species, viability analysis and habitat loss and fragmentation.

Titre : Peer review and manuscript management in scientific journals: guidelines for good practice Type de document : livre Auteurs : Hames, I. Mention d'édition : 01 éd. Editeur : Malden : Blackwell Année de publication : 2007 Importance : 293 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9-781-1-4051-3159-9 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé le 31/07/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Edition scientifique Manuel Rédaction technique Résumé : This comprehensive yet concise book provides a thorough and complete guide to every aspect of managing the peer review process for scientific journals. Until now, little information has been readily available on how this important facet of the journal publishing process should be conducted properly. Peer Review and Manuscript Management in Scientific Journals fills this gap and provides clear guidance on all aspects of peer review, from manuscript submission to final decision. Peer Review and Manuscript Management in Scientific Journals is an essential reference for science journal editors, editorial office staff and publishers. It is an invaluable handbook for the set-up of new Editorial Offices, as well as a useful reference for well-established journals which may need guidance on a particular situation, or may want to review their current practices. Although intended primarily for journals in science, much of its content will be relevant to other scholarly areas.

Titre : Stable isotopes in ecology and environmental science Type de document : livre Auteurs : Michener, R.(Ed.) ; Lajhta, K.(Ed.) Mention d'édition : 02 éd. Editeur : Malden : Blackwell Année de publication : 2007 Collection : Ecological methods and concepts Importance : 566 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-4051-2680-9 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé et emprunté le 15/01/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Environmental aspects Isotopes Résumé : This book highlights new and emerging uses of stable isotope analysis in a variety of ecological disciplines. While the use of natural abundance isotopes in ecological research is now relatively standard, new techniques and ways of interpreting patterns are developing rapidly. The second edition of this book provides a thorough, up-to-date examination of these methods of research. As part of the Ecological Methods and Concepts series which provides the latest information on experimental techniques in ecology, this book looks at a wide range of techniques that use natural abundance isotopes to: * follow whole ecosystem element cycling * understand processes of soil organic matter formation * follow the movement of water in whole watersheds * understand the effects of pollution in both terrestrial and aquatic environments * study extreme systems such as hydrothermal vents * follow migrating organisms In each case, the book explains the background to the methodology, looks at the underlying principles and assumptions, and outlines the potential limitations and pitfalls.
