Ecosystem services as
a concept plays a key role in solving global environmental and human ecological
crises and associated other problems, especially today when the sixth major
extinction event of the history of the biosphere is in progress, and humanity
can easily become a victim of it. The aim of this book is to give an
overview and report from the frontiers of research of this important and
interesting multidisciplinary area.
This book, Landscape Ecology has written
to present major and efficient applications in landscape ecology, as well as to
propose a solid action for this category of topics. The book aims to illustrate
various treatment methods of the land-use models impact on landscape ecology
creation.
This note will cover fundamentals of ecology, considering Earth as an
integrated dynamic system. Topics covered include coevolution of the biosphere,
geosphere, atmosphere and oceans, photosynthesis and respiration the hydrologic,
carbon and nitrogen cycles.

This practical dictionary is for the
use of students, teachers, and investigators in ecology and related fields such
as range management, forestry, wildlife, conservation, agronomy, and limnology.
The aim of this dictionary is to fill the need for definitions of many new terms
that have come into usage during the past thirty years and also to include many
of the old terms that are used in current literature.
