Human activity during the Anthropocene has transformed landscapes
worldwide on a scale that rivals or exceeds even the largest of
natural forces. Landscape ecology has emerged as a science to
investigate the interactions between natural and anthropogenic
landscapes and ecological processes across a wide range of scales
and systems: from the effects of habitat or resource distributions
on the individual movements, gene flow, and population dynamics of
plants and animals; to the human alteration of landscapes affecting
the structure of biological communities and the functioning of
entire ecosystems; to the sustainable management of natural
resources and the ecosystem goods and services upon which society
depends. This novel and comprehensive text presents the principles,
theory, methods, and applications of landscape ecology in an
engaging and accessible format that is supplemented by numerous
examples and case studies from a variety of systems, including
freshwater and marine "scapes".
