W. S. C. Gurney and R. M. Nisbet cologica Dynamics is unique in that it can serve both as an introductory text in numerous ecology courses and as a resource for
more advanced work. It provides a flexible introduction to ecological dynamics that is accessible to students with limited previous mathematical and computational experience, yet also offers glimpses into the state of the art in the field.
The book is divided into three parts: Part 1: Methodologies and Techniques defines the authors modeling philosophy, focusing on models rather than ecology, and introduces essential concepts for describing and analyzing dynamical systems. Part 11: Individuals to Ecosystems, the core of the book, describes the formulation and analysis of models of individual organisms, populations, and ecosystems. Part Ill: Focus on Structure introduces more advanced readers to models of structured and spatially extended populations. Approximately 25% of the book is devoted to case studies drawn from the authors research. Readers are guided through the many judgment calls involved in model formulation, shown the key steps in model analysis, and offered the authors' interpretation of the results. All chapters end with exercises and projects. While the book is designed to be independent of any particular computing environment, a well-tested software package (SOLVER) including programs for solution of differential and difference equations is available via the World Wide Web at http://www.stams.strath.ac.uk/external/solver.
Ideal for courses in modeling ecological and environmental change, Ecological Dynamics can also be used in other courses such as theoretical ecology, population ecology, mathematical biology and ecology, and quantitative ecology. 1998 352 pp.; 110 illustrations $39.95
