Dispersal ecology and evolution / Jean Clobert (2012)  

Public ISBD Titre : Dispersal ecology and evolution Type de document : livre Auteurs : Jean Clobert, Éditeur scientifique ; M. Baguette, Éditeur scientifique ; T. G. Benton, Éditeur scientifique ; J. M. Bullock, Éditeur scientifique Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : Oxford, UK : Oxford University Press Année de publication : 2012 Importance : 462 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-19-960890-4 Note générale : 3 ex.; ISBN-13 : 978-0-19-960889-8 (Hbk), 978-0-19-960890-4 (Pbk) Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Behavioural ecology  Conservation biology  Dispersal ecology  Evolution (Biology)  Genetics Résumé : Le site éditeur indique : Now that so many ecosystems face rapid and major environmental change, the ability of species to respond to these changes by dispersing or moving between different patches of habitat can be crucial to ensuring their survival. Understanding dispersal has become key to understanding how populations may persist. Dispersal Ecology and Evolution provides a timely and wide-ranging overview of the fast expanding field of dispersal ecology, incorporating the very latest research. The causes, mechanisms, and consequences of dispersal at the individual, population, species, and community levels are considered. Perspectives and insights are offered from the fields of evolution, behavioural ecology, conservation biology, and genetics. Throughout the book theoretical approaches are combined with empirical data, and care has been taken to include examples from as wide a range of species as possible - both plant and animal.

Aeroecology / Phillip B. Chilson (2017)  

Public ISBD Titre : Aeroecology Type de document : livre Auteurs : Phillip B. Chilson, Éditeur scientifique ; Winifred F. Frick, Éditeur scientifique ; Jeffrey F. Kelly, Éditeur scientifique ; Felix Liechti, Éditeur scientifique Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : Cham, Switzerland : Springer Année de publication : 2017 Importance : 497 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-3-319-68576-2 Note générale : Soft re-print of the Hardcover 1st ed. 2017; DOI:10.1007/978-3-319-68576-2 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Atmosphere  Fauna  Animal physiology  Dispersion  Flight  Behavioural ecology Résumé : La 4ème de couv. indique : This book consists of a diverse collection of chapters that seeks to broaden our fundamental understanding of the ecological function and biological importance of the Earth's lower atmosphere, which provides a huge living space for billions of animals moving within and across continents. Their migration, dispersal and foraging activities connect water and land habitats within and across continents. Drawing upon the wide-ranging experience of the authors, the book takes an inherently interdisciplinary approach that serves to introduce the reader to the topic of aeroecology, frame some of the basic biological questions that can be addressed within the context of aeroecology, and highlight several existing and emerging technologies that are being used to promote aeroecological studies. The book begins with several background chapters, that provide introduction into such topics as atmospheric science, the concept of the habitat, animal physiology, and methods of navigation. It then continues with a broad discussion of observational methods available to and used by aeroecologists. Finally, several targeted examples of aeroecological studies are presented. Following the development of the chapters, the reader is provided with a unifying framework for investigating how the dynamic properties of meteorological conditions at local, regional, and global scales affect the organisms that depend on the air for foraging and movement. Material presented in the book should be of interest to anyone wishing to gain a comprehensive understanding of the aerosphere itself and the myriad airborne organisms that inhabit and depend upon this environment for their existence. The material should be accessible to a diverse set of readers at all stages of training and across a range of research expertise.

Comparative cognition / Olmstead, Mary C. ; Kuhlmeier, Valerie A. (2015)

Public ISBD Titre : Comparative cognition Type de document : livre Auteurs : Olmstead, Mary C. ; Kuhlmeier, Valerie A. Mention d'édition : 01 éd. Editeur : Cambridge, UK : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2015 Importance : 471 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-107-01116-8 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Animal communication  Behavioural ecology  Cognition  Ethology  Pychology,Comparative Résumé : Integrating developments from psychology, ethology and neuroscience, this is an undergraduate introduction to cognitive processes across species. The authors merge classic studies and contemporary research to give students a full picture of the evolving field of comparative cognition. Engaging students in the discipline from its roots in animal learning and evolutionary biology through to current research, the chapters cover both controlled laboratory and comparative cross-species studies in the natural environment. This approach provides students with complementary ethological and neurobiological perspectives on cognition. Feature boxes encourage active and engaged learning, giving a deeper understanding of topics discussed in the main text. These are supported by end-of-chapter questions to check understanding and encourage wider thinking around topics. Online resources include solutions to questions in the book, advanced material, PowerPoint lecture slides and additional questions, all available at www.cambridge.org/cognition Note de contenu : Hbk; Comparative cognition [livre] / Olmstead, Mary C. ; Kuhlmeier, Valerie A.  . -  01 éd. . - Cambridge, UK : Cambridge University Press, 2015 . - 471 p.
