Examining Ecology: Exercises in Environmental Biology and
Conservation explains foundational ecological principles using a
hands-on approach that features analyzing data, drawing graphs, and
undertaking practical exercises that simulate field work. The book
provides students and lecturers with real life examples to
demonstrate basic principles. The book helps students, instructors,
and those new to the field learn about the principles of ecology
and conservation by completing a series of problems. Prior
knowledge of the subject is not assumed; the work requires users to
be able to perform simple calculations and draw graphs. Most of the
exercises in the book have been used widely by the author's own
students over a number of years, and many are based on real data
from published research. Exercises are succinct with a broad number
of options, which is a unique feature among similar books on this
topic. The book is primarily intended as a resource for students,
academics, and instructors studying, teaching, and working in
zoology, ecology, biology, wildlife conservation and management,
ecophysiology, behavioural ecology, population biology and ecology,
environmental biology, or environmental science. Students will be
able to progress through the book attempting each exercise in a
logical sequence, beginning with basic principles and working up to
more complex exercises. Alternatively they may wish to focus on
specific chapters on specialist areas, e.g., population dynamics.
Many of the exercises introduce students to mathematical methods
(calculations, use of formulae, drawing of graphs, calculating
simple statistics). Other exercises simulate fieldwork projects,
allowing users to 'collect' and analyze data which would take
considerable time and effort to collect in the field.
