Produktinformationen zu „Measuring Biological Diversity (PDF)“
This accessible and timely book provides a comprehensive overview
of how to measure biodiversity. The book highlights new
developments, including innovative approaches to measuring
taxonomic distinctness and estimating species richness, and
evaluates these alongside traditional methods such as species
abundance distributions, and diversity and evenness statistics.
* Helps the reader quantify and interpret patterns of ecological
diversity, focusing on the measurement and estimation of species
richness and abundance.
* Explores the concept of ecological diversity, bringing new
perspectives to a field beset by contradictory views and
advice.
* Discussion spans issues such as the meaning of community in the
context of ecological diversity, scales of diversity and
distribution of diversity among taxa
* Highlights advances in measurement paying particular attention
to new techniques such as species richness estimation, application
of measures of diversity to conservation and environmental
management and addressing sampling issues
* Includes worked examples of key methods in helping people to
understand the techniques and use available computer packages more
effectively
