About the Book

Ethnobiology and ethnoecology have become very popular in recent years. Particularly in the last 20 years, many manuals of methods have published the most classical approaches to the subject. There have been, however, many advances in research as a result of interaction with different disciplines, but also due to more recent results, new original and interesting questions. This handbook provides the current state of the art methods and techniques in ethnobiology and ethnoecology, and related fields. This new volume, besides bringing new and original aspects of what is found in the literature, fills some of the gaps in volume one by including the most systematic and extensive treatment of methods and techniques in qualitative research. Along with the various methods covered in the individual chapters, the handbook also includes an extensive bibliography that details the current literature in the field.

Table of Contents:
Preface.- Overview.- Preparation of qualitative research.- Execution of the qualitative research.- Participant observation and Field Journal.- Audio and video recording techniques for ethnobiological research.- Discourse of the collective subject as a method for analysis of data in ethnobiological research.- Qualitative data analysis.- The meta-analytical and macroecological approach of Ethnobiology.- Collection and analysis of risks associated with environmental changes.- Sensitivity to harvesting and local risk indexes in ethnobotanical research.- The use of multivariate tools in the study of traditional resource management systems.- Multidimensional analysis for testing conservation, ecological and ethnobiological hypotheses.- Ethnoecology in pluricultural contexts.- Ethnobotany and ethnoecology applied to historical ecology.- Biocultural collections.- Accessing the traditional knowledge on the use of cryptogams.- Ethical considerations and protocols in ethnoecological and ethnobiological research.- Challenges in ethnozoological research.- Methodology applied to geographical indication.- Recent advances in research methods and techniques.- Chemical profile and antioxidant activity of natural products.-Collection and extraction of fatty acids from animals and their possible applications in ethnopharmacological research.- Advanced methods in the chemical analysis of medicinal plants.- Population ecology of plant species submitted to extractivism.- Methods for measuring hunting pressure.- Rapid sampling techniques for vertebrate fauna.- Techniques for analyzing the sustainability of hunting.- Description of technological processes for optimization and enhancement of local uses.- Index.
