Applied ecology is a framework for the application of knowledge about ecosystems so that
actions can be taken to create a better balance and harmony between people and
nature in order to reduce human impact on other beings and their habitats.
Topics covered includes: Conservation Management, Habitat Creation,
Agro-Ecological Systems, Wetland Engineering, Disease Transmission, Breeding and
Reintroduction of Rare Species, Environmental Valuation, Nature Tourism, The
Endangered Resources, New Societies and Cultures, Case Studies.
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 note covers the following
topics: Evolution, Physiological Ecology, Plant Physiological Ecology, Animal
Physiological Ecology, Population Ecology, Population Growth, Population Cycles,
Community Ecology, Ecosystem Ecology.
This lecture note is prepared primarily for health officer students, and
is organized based on the course outline of introduction to public health in the
curriculum of health officers. Topics covered includes: Introduction to
Ecological Principles, Ecosystem, Population Dynamics, The Biosphere and its
Pollution, Natural Resources and their Conservation.

Author, Clements is best known for his
theory of community development or plant succession. The authors were brought
together in this task of attempting to correlate the fields of plant and animal
ecology by the common belief that it would tend to advance the science of
ecology in general.

Edward Clements and Victor E. Shelford
Aim of this book is to bring out a
general view on the function of ecosystems, modelling, sampling strategies,
invading species, the response of organisms to modifications, the carbon
dynamics, the mathematical models and theories that can be applied in diverse
conditions.
This
note covers the following topics: Wyoming’s Forests, Criteria for Evaluating
Forest Health, Natural Forest Disturbance Regimes and Climate Change Projections
and Future Forests.

This Introductory Ecology
Module explains the hierarchical structure of ecology-species, populations,
communities, and ecosystems. Each lecture will focus on a key ecological
principle then provide applied examples to further demonstrate the concept.
