Land Mosaics : The Ecology of Landscapes and Regions

Star Full Star Empty

(Paperback)-Animals, water, wind, and people flow at different rates according to spatial patterns common to almost all landscapes and regions. This up-to-date synthesis explores the ecology of heterogeneous land areas, where natural processes and human activities interact to produce an ever changing mosaic. The subject has great relevance to contemporary society and this book reflects the breadth of this importance: there are many ideas and applications for planning, conservation, design, management, sustainability and policy. Spatial solutions are provided for society's land-use objectives. Students and professionals alike will be drawn by the attractive and informative illustrations, the conceptual synthesis, the wide international perspective, and the range of topics and research covered.

This is an introductory level text for those interested in landscape ecology. The authors do a nice job of defining jargon common to the field and provide some equations for various chapter subjects in chapter appendices. The references cited section of the book is comprehensive and useful. Personally, I found the appendices and the reference list at the end of the book to be more useful than the text itself.
