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
