The updated fourth edition of the Dictionary of Ecology is the most
comprehensive and authoritative dictionary of ecology available.
Written in a clear, accessible style, it contains more than 6,000
entries on all aspects of ecology and related environmental
scientific disciplines such as biogeography, genetics, soil
science, geomorphology, atmospheric science, and oceanography. The
information covered in the dictionary is wide-ranging and includes
plant and animal physiology, animal behavior, pollution,
conservation, habitat management, population, evolution,
environmental pollution, climatology and meteorology. It also
features many line drawings and useful appendices including
estimations of population parameters, the geologic time-scale, SI
units, and--new to this edition--a web-linked appendix of relevant
organizations including both governmental agencies and conservation
societies.
Fully revised, updated, and expanded, with over 100 new entries,
this fourth edition also contains new web links for dozens of
entries--which are accessed and kept up to date via the Dictionary
of Ecology companion website. The dictionary will be invaluable to
students and professionals interested in ecology, biology,
conservation, and the environmental sciences as well as general
readers with an interest in the natural world.
