This book was released on 1998-06-25 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Natural History of the Doucs and Snub-nosed Monkeys provides a comprehensive introduction to the biology of some of the rarest and least-known nonhuman primates. Virtually unstudied and unknown until 20 years ago, the doucs and snub-nosed monkeys occupy some of the most remote habitats of eastern Asia and exhibit some of the most unusual adaptations of any nonhuman primates. The volume provides detailed information on these rare Asian primates that will be useful to practitioners of evolutionary biology, field and laboratory primatology, systematics, field ecology, and conservation biology.

Download or read book Foundations of Macroecology written by Felisa A. Smith and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-08-22 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Macroecology is an approach to science that emphasizes description and explanation of patterns and processes at large spatial and temporal scales. Some liken it to seeing the forest through the trees, an apt ecological use of the proverbial phrase. The term itself was introduced to modern literature by our authors James Brown and Brian Maurer, in a seminal science paper in 1989. We then published books by both of these authors, including Brown s Macroecology in 1995, which quickly traveled to the shelf of classics in ecology, credited with cohering and inspiring a subfield of ecology proper.While macroecology is to many a modern subfield, the large-scale perspective it advocates is implicit in earlier publications. For example, in 1898 de Liocourt studied the influence of management practices on the structure of French fir forests, and characterized the distribution of tree size in three different stands. His findings that in natural areas the number of trees declined exponentially with increasing diameter of the trunk allowed him to draw conclusions about the influence of management practices on tree distribution patterns. Similarly, other classic macroecological patterns including the species-area relationship, latitudinal gradient of species richness, relationship between body size and metabolic rate, species-abundance distribution, and species-body size distribution were identified decades, sometimes even centuries ago. Consequently, despite the scant twenty years that has elapsed since the term was coined, macroecology has a deep and rich history."Foundations of Macroecology" traces and coheres that history, charting an evolutionary trajectory to the rigorous macroecological research landscape science enjoys today. The forty-six papers span eight decades, from 1920 to 1998, and include divergent perspectives of space, time, and taxonomic and habitat affiliation. They are organized into two main parts: Macroecology before Macroecology and Dimensions of Macroecology. The latter is further subdivided into six sections reflecting the subject matter: Allometry and Body Size, Evolutionary Dynamics, Abundance and Distributions, Species Diversity, and Methodological Advances. For each reprinted paper, a macroecologist specializing in that area has written original commentary that places the paper in a broader context and explains why it is foundational. "

Download or read book Arch Of Society written by Thomas Levy and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume marks a departure from earlier descriptive archaeological summaries of the Holy Land. Taking an anthropological and socio-economic perspective, many of the leading archaeologists who work in Israel and Jordan today present timely and concise summaries of the archaeology of this region. Chronologically organized, each chapter outlines the major cultural transitions which occurred in a given archaeological period. To explain the processes which were responsible for culture change, a review is made of the most recent research concerning settlement patterns, innovations and technology, religion and ideology, and social organization. The material culture of every period of human history in the Holy Land is explored from the earliest prehistoric hominids, through the Biblical and historical periods and up to modern (20th century) times. Each chapter is accompanied by settlement pattern maps and a plate highlighting the major artifacts which archaeologists use to identify the material culture of the period. In addition, windows are presented which focus on major social issues and controversies such as "The Agricultural Revolution", the "Israelite Conquest of Canaan" and "Ancient Metal Working and Social Change". This volume should provide students and the general reader with a useful reference volume concerning the archaeology of societies which lived and live in the Holy Land.
