Evolutionary community ecology / Mark A. McPeek (2017)  

Public ISBD Titre : Evolutionary community ecology Type de document : livre Auteurs : Mark A. McPeek Editeur : Princeton, New Jersey : Princeton University Press Année de publication : 2017 Collection : Monographs in population biology num. 58 Importance : 313 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-691-08877-8 Prix : 60.00 USD Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Ecology  Theory  Biology  Evolution  Natural selection  Biocoenosis  Ecosystems  Population dynamics Résumé : "Evolutionary Community Ecology develops a unified framework for understanding the structure of ecological communities and the dynamics of natural selection that shape the evolution of the species inhabiting them. All species engage in interactions with many other species, and these interactions regulate their abundance, define their trajectories of natural selection, and shape their movement decisions. Mark McPeek synthesizes the ecological and evolutionary dynamics generated by species interactions that structure local biological communities and regional metacommunities. McPeek explores the ecological performance characteristics needed for invasibility and coexistence of species in complex networks of species interactions. This species interaction framework is then extended to examine the ecological dynamics of natural selection that drive coevolution of interacting species in these complex interaction networks. The models of natural selection resulting from species interactions are used to evaluate the ecological conditions that foster diversification at multiple trophic levels. Analyses show that diversification depends on the ecological context in which species interactions occur and the types of traits that define the mechanisms of those species interactions. Lastly, looking at the mechanisms of speciation that affect species richness and diversity at various spatial scales and the consequences of past climate change over the Quaternary period, McPeek considers how metacommunity structure is shaped at regional and biogeographic scales. Integrating evolutionary theory into the study of community ecology, Evolutionary Community Ecology provides a new framework for predicting how communities are organized and how they may change over time."

Community ecology in a changing world / Lawton, J.H. (2000)

Public ISBD Titre : Community ecology in a changing world Type de document : livre Auteurs : Lawton, J.H. Editeur : Oldendorf/Luhe : Ecology Institute Année de publication : 2000 Collection : Excellence in ecology, 11 Importance : 227 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : ISSN67731 Note générale : ISSN : 0932-2205 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biocoenosis  Biodiversity  Climatic change  Ecology  Ecosystems  Synecology Résumé : EE Book 11 documents John Lawton's insights into community ecology. The book begins by describing field situations in northern England and short-term reductionist experiments. It proceeds towards increasingly complex assemblages, pointing out that short-term, small-scale studies are unlikely to allow useful predictions of global effects. Lawton criticises the insufficient use of models. He advocates concentration on key processes such as competition, trophic interactions and mutualism, as well as long-term system dynamics and whole-system manipulations.
