Biodiversity / Lévêque, C. ; Mounolou, Jean Claude (2003)  

Public ISBD Titre : Biodiversity Type de document : livre Auteurs : Lévêque, C. ; Mounolou, Jean Claude Editeur : Chichester, U.K. : Wiley Année de publication : 2003 Importance : 284 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-470-84957-6 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biodiversity conservation  Biological diversity Résumé : The title provides an overview of the current knowledge about the diversity of the living world and the various problems associated with its conservation and sustainable use. Covering both the fundamentals of the subject, along with the latest research, Biodiversity presents key conservation issues within a framework of global case studies. Starting with a summary of the concept of biodiversity, the text then explores such subjects as species richness, ecological systems, the consequences of human activities, diversity and human health, genetic resources, biotechnology and conservation.

Phylogeny and conservation / Andy Purvis (2005)  

Public ISBD Titre : Phylogeny and conservation Type de document : livre Auteurs : Andy Purvis, Éditeur scientifique ; John L. Gittleman, Éditeur scientifique ; Thomas Brooks, Éditeur scientifique Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2005 Collection : Conservation biology, 8 Importance : 431 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-53200-0 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biodiversity conservation  Case studies  Conservation of natural resources  Ecology  Ecosystems  Phylogeny Résumé : Phylogeny is a potentially powerful tool for conserving biodiversity. This book explores how it can be used to tackle questions of great practical importance and urgency for conservation. Using case studies from many different taxa and regions of the world, the volume evaluates how useful phylogeny is in understanding the processes that have generated today's diversity and the processes that now threaten it. The novelty of many of the applications, the increasing ease with which phylogenies can be generated, the urgency with which conservation decisions have to be made and the need to make decisions that are as good as possible together make this volume a timely and important synthesis which will be of great value to researchers, practitioners and policy-makers alike.

A theory of global biodiversity / Boris Worm (2018)  

Public ISBD Titre : A theory of global biodiversity Type de document : livre Auteurs : Boris Worm, Auteur ; Derek P. Tittensor, Auteur Editeur : Princeton, New Jersey : Princeton University Press Année de publication : 2018 Collection : Monographs in population biology num. 60 Importance : 214 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-691-15483-1 Prix : 49.95 USD Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biological diversity  Evolution  Ecology  Biodiversity conservation Résumé : La 4ème de couv. indique : The number of species found at a given point on the planet varies by orders of magnitude, yet large-scale gradients in biodiversity appear to follow some very general patterns. Little mechanistic theory has been formulated to explain the emergence of observed gradients of biodiversity both on land and in the oceans. Based on a comprehensive empirical synthesis of global patterns of species diversity and their drivers, A Theory of Global Biodiversity develops and applies a new theory that can predict such patterns from few underlying processes. The authors show that global patterns of biodiversity fall into four consistent categories, according to where species live: on land or in coastal, pelagic, and deep ocean habitats. The fact that most species groups, from bacteria to whales, appear to follow similar biogeographic patterns of richness within these habitats points toward some underlying structuring principles. Based on empirical analyses of environmental correlates across these habitats, the authors combine aspects of neutral, metabolic, and niche theory into one unifying framework. Applying it to model terrestrial and marine realms, the authors demonstrate that a relatively simple theory that incorporates temperature and community size as driving variables is able to explain divergent patterns of species richness at a global scale. Integrating ecological and evolutionary perspectives, A Theory of Global Biodiversity yields surprising insights into the fundamental mechanisms that shape the distribution of life on our planet.
