About the Book

This book provides a new perspective on how events or conditions in environmental space have influences at other places in that space. In the first half of the book, the authors introduce the general question of propagation of ecological influences through environmental space (terrestrial, aquatic and aerial), then lay out a system for its analysis by organization into four components: initiating events or conditions, vectors conducting influences over space, entities that are transported, and the consequences of these propagation processes. Methods of representing environmental heterogeneity and for modeling transport processes are discussed in the context of such propagations. In the second half of the book, properties of eight general transport vectors and examples of transport models in realistic ecological situations are explained. For each of the vectors, a simulation model is provided on a CD included with the book (users require access to ArcView GIS software).

Table of Contents:
Part I: 1. Flows and movements in ecology; 2. Causes, mechanisms and consequences of propagating influences; 3. How do we see nature?; 4.

Fluvial transport; 11. Animal movement; 12. Electromagnetic radiation; 13. The propagation of sound; References; Index.
