Networks of Invasion bridges a conceptual gap between ecological network studies and invasion biology studies. This book contains chapters detailing pressing concerns regarding invasive species in food webs, but also extends the idea of networks of invasion to other systems, such as mutualistic networks or even the human microbiome. Chapters describe the tools, models, and empirical methods adapted for tackling invasions in ecological networks.Contains chapters detailing pressing concerns regarding invasive species in food websDeals with topical and important reviews on the physiology, populations, and communities of plants and animals

Based around the ongoing European Science Foundation SIZEMIC Research Network, which has been running for several years, this title highlights areas for future investigation.

The theme of this volume is to discuss Eco-evolutionary Dynamics.

Covers important topics such Networking Agroecology, Construction and Validation of Food-webs using Logic-based Machine Learning and Text-mining and Eco-evolutionary dynamics in agricultural networks.

Describes one of the most important processes in the biosphere the decay of organic matter. This work focuses on the decomposition process of foliar litter in the terrestrial systems of boreal and temperate forests due to the greater amount of data from those biomes. It is aimed at researchers specializing in this field.

Nowhere are floods more paradoxical than in the generally arid Australian continent. This book brings together experts to synthesize knowledge on floods, their occurrence, and their consequences for the environment and societies in the Australian context. It also discusses disturbances on landscape.

The importance and ecological significance of estuaries has been long appreciated. In recent times, there has been increased research activity, resulting in significant advances in understanding of estuarine ecology. This thematic volume provides an overview of a number of the important areas.

Advances in Ecological Research, Volume 61, the latest release in this ongoing series includes specific chapters on the Mechanistic links between biodiversity and ecosystem function, A multitrophic, eco-evolutionary perspective on biodiversity-ecosystem functioning research, Linking species coexistence to ecosystem functioning - a conceptual framework from ecological first principles, Species contributions to above and below ground biodiversity effects in the Trait-Based Experiment, Plant diversity effects on element cycling, Plant diversity effects on consumer community structure, stability, and ecosystem function, Plant community assembly and the consequences for ecosystem function, and more. Provides information that relates to a thorough understanding of the field of ecologyDeals with topical and important reviews on the physiologies, populations and communities of plants and animals
