This collection of specially commissioned articles looks at
fragmented habitats, bringing together recent theoretical advances
and empirical studies applying the metapopulation approach. Several
chapters closely integrate ecology with genetics and evolutionary
biology, and others illustrate how metapopulation concepts and
models can be applied to answer questions about conservation,
epidemiology, and speciation.
Habitat destruction has left many landscapes increasingly
fragmented. These isolated populations, or metapopulations, are in
a constant state of change-growing, shrinking, disappearing, and
reappearing. This unique volume brings together an international
team of ecologists, geneticists, and evolutionary biologists who
provide a comprehensive review of metapopulations. This book will
provide fundamental reading for anyone studying the spatial
dynamics of populations.
