Spatial Ecology and Conservation Modeling: Applications with R

Autor Robert Fletcher, Marie-Josée Fortin
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 feb 2019
This book provides a foundation for modern applied ecology. Much of current ecology research and conservation addresses problems across landscapes and regions, focusing on spatial patterns and processes. This book is aimed at teaching fundamental concepts and focuses on learning-by-doing through the use of examples with the software R. It is intended to provide an entry-level, easily accessible foundation for students and practitioners interested in spatial ecology and conservation.
