Book Current Ornithology Volume 17

    Book Details:
  • Author : Charles F. Thompson
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2010-09-09
  • ISBN : 1441964215
  • Pages : 201 pages

Download or read book Current Ornithology Volume 17 written by Charles F. Thompson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-09 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current Ornithology publishes authoritative, up-to-date, scholarly reviews of topics selected from the full range of current research in avian biology. Topics cover the spectrum from the molecular level of organization to population biology and community ecology. The series seeks especially to review (1) fields in which an abundant recent literature will benefit from synthesis and organization, or (2) newly emerging fields that are gaining recognition as the result of recent discoveries or shifts in perspective, or (3) fields in which students of vertebrates may benefit from comparisons of birds with other classes. All chapters are invited, and authors are chosen for their leadership in the subjects under review.

Book Ecology and Conservation of Forest Birds

Download or read book Ecology and Conservation of Forest Birds written by Grzegorz Mikusiński and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-29 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecology and Conservation of Forest Birds is a unique review of current understanding of the relationships between forest birds and their changing environments. Large ecological changes are being driven by forest management, climate change, introduced pests and pathogens, abiotic disturbances, and overbrowsing. Many forest bird species have suffered population declines, with the situation being particularly severe for birds dependent on attributes such as dead wood, old trees and structurally complex forests. With a focus on the non-tropical parts of the Northern Hemisphere, the text addresses the fundamental evolutionary and ecological aspects of forest birds using original data analyses and synthesising reviews. The characteristics of bird assemblages and their habitats in different European forest types are explored, together with the macroecological patterns of bird diversity and conservation issues. The book provides a valuable reference for ecologists, ornithologists, conservation professionals, forest industry employees, and those interested in birds and nature.

Book A Climatic Atlas of European Breeding Birds

Download or read book A Climatic Atlas of European Breeding Birds written by Brian Huntley and published by Lynx Communications. This book was released on 2007 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Publicación conjunta de Durham University, RSPB y Lynx Edicions en asociación con University of Cambridge, BirdLife International y EBCC. Se trata del primer libro que realiza una investigación exhaustiva de la relación entre la distribución de las aves nidificantes en Europa y el clima actual, y de cómo el cambio climático podría alterar la distribución potencial de nidificación de cada especie. Los resultados se presentan de manera detallada para 431 especies, con reseñas breves para otras 48 especies nativas y 16 introducidas. El volumen incluye resúmenes de los patrones climáticos y de vegetación en Europa, un análisis biogeográfico de las aves nidificantes de dicho continente, una revisión de la base de los estudios sobre las relaciones entre la distribución de las especies y el clima y un debate sobre los métodos utilizados en dichos estudios. Contiene también un sumario de los cambios previstos que experimentará el clima en Europa hasta finales de siglo así como un debate sobre la respuesta de las especies al cambio climático. Además, para cada una de las 431 especies, se incluye un breve resumen de su distribución y ecología, mapas de su distribución recientemente corregida y de su potencial futura distribución a finales del siglo XXI, una representación gráfica de la respuesta de cada especie a las tres variables bioclimáticas principales, acompañada de un texto describiendo los posibles efectos que el cambio climático pueda tener sobre dichas especies. Finalmente, se incluye una síntesis y una recapitulación de los resultados obtenidos del conjunto de 431 especies examinadas y una sección final presentando las implicaciones de estos resultados, especialmente con respecto a la conservación de aves en Europa.

Book Experimental Design and Data Analysis for Biologists

Download or read book Experimental Design and Data Analysis for Biologists written by Gerry P. Quinn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-03-21 with total page 851 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential textbook for any student or researcher in biology needing to design experiments, sample programs or analyse the resulting data. The text begins with a revision of estimation and hypothesis testing methods, covering both classical and Bayesian philosophies, before advancing to the analysis of linear and generalized linear models. Topics covered include linear and logistic regression, simple and complex ANOVA models (for factorial, nested, block, split-plot and repeated measures and covariance designs), and log-linear models. Multivariate techniques, including classification and ordination, are then introduced. Special emphasis is placed on checking assumptions, exploratory data analysis and presentation of results. The main analyses are illustrated with many examples from published papers and there is an extensive reference list to both the statistical and biological literature. The book is supported by a website that provides all data sets, questions for each chapter and links to software.

Book Birds of Prey and Red Grouse

Download or read book Birds of Prey and Red Grouse written by Steve M. Redpath and published by Stationery Office Books (TSO). This book was released on 1997 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between birds of prey and red grouse, the former of conservaton interest and the latter of economic importance, is central to the management of many upland estates. This text describes the results of a study which examined the impact of raptor predation on red grouse numbers. The study was based at Langholm, south-west Scotland, but was extended in part to five other moors elsewhere in Scotland.
