Dynamic Food Webs challenges us to rethink what factors may
determine ecological and evolutionary pathways of food web
development. It touches upon the intriguing idea that trophic
interactions drive patterns and dynamics at different levels of
biological organization: dynamics in species composition, dynamics
in population life-history parameters and abundances, and dynamics
in individual growth, size and behavior. These dynamics are shown
to be strongly interrelated governing food web structure and
stability and the role of populations and communities play in
ecosystem functioning.
Dyanmic Food Webs not only offers over 100 illustrations, but also
contains 8 riveting sections devoted to an understanding of how to
manage the effects of environmental change, the protection of
biological diversity and the sustainable use of natural resources.
Dyanmic Food Webs is a volume in the "Theoretical Ecology" series.
* Relates dynamics on different levels of biological organization:
individuals, populations, and communities
* Deals with empirical and theoretical approaches
* Discusses the role of community food webs in ecosystem
functioning
* Proposes methods to assess the effects of environmental change on
the structure of biological communities and ecosystem
functioning
* Offers an analyses of the relationship between complexity and
stability in food webs
Digital Soil Mapping is the creation and the population of a
geographically referenced soil database. It is generated at a given
resolution by using field and laboratory observation methods
coupled with environmental data through quantitative relationships.
Digital soil mapping is advancing on different fronts at different
rates all across the world. This book presents the state-of-the art
and explores strategies for bridging research, production, and
environmental application of digital soil mapping.It includes
examples from North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and
Australia. The chapters address the following topics: - evaluating
and using legacy soil data - exploring new environmental covariates
and sampling schemes - using integrated sensors to infer soil
properties or status - innovative inference systems predicting soil
classes, properties, and estimating their uncertainties - using
digital soil mapping and techniques for soil assessment and
environmental application - protocol and capacity building for
making digital soil mapping operational around the globe. "
This book contains a collection of original and state-of-the-art
contributions in rational choice and general equilibrium theory.
Among the topics are preferences, demand, equilibrium, core
allocations, and testable restrictions. The contributing authors
are Daniel McFadden, Rosa Matzkin, Emma Moreno-Garcia, Roger
Lagunoff, Yakar Kannai, Myrna Wooders, James Moore, Ted Bergstrom,

The two-volume work is intended to function as a textbook for graduate students in economics as well as a reference work for economic scholars. Assuming only the minimal mathematics background required of every second-year graduate student in economics, these two volumes provide a self-contained and careful development of mathematics through locally convex topological vector spaces, and fixed-point, separation, and selection theorems in such spaces. Volume One covers basic set theory, sequences and series, continuous and semi-continuous functions, an introduction to general linear spaces, basic convexity theory, and applications to economics. Volume Two introduces general topology, the theory of correspondences on and into topological spaces, Banach spaces, topological vector spaces, and maximum, fixed-point, and selection theorems for such spaces.
