The Handbook provides a supporting guide to key aspects and
applications of landscape ecology to underpin its research and
teaching. A wide range of contributions written by expert
researchers in the field summarize the latest knowledge on
landscape ecology theory and concepts, landscape processes, methods
and tools, and emerging frontiers. Landscape ecology is an
interdisciplinary and holistic discipline, and this is reflected in
the chapters contained in this Handbook. Authors from varying
disciplinary backgrounds tackle key concepts such as landscape
structure and function, scale and connectivity; landscape processes
such as disturbance, flows, and fragmentation; methods such as
remote sensing and mapping, fieldwork, pattern analysis, modelling,
and participation and engagement in landscape planning; and
emerging frontiers such as ecosystem services, landscape approaches
to biodiversity conservation, and climate change. Each chapter
provides a blend of the latest scientific understanding of its
focal topics along with considerations and examples of their
application from around the world. An invaluable guide to the
concepts, methods, and applications of landscape ecology, this book
will be an important reference text for a wide range of students
and academics in ecology, geography, biology, and interdisciplinary
environmental studies.
