Landscape ecological analysis

de Jeffrey M. Klopatek, R. H. Gardner

"Studies in landscape ecology focus on the effect of heterogeneity on ecosystem structure and function. Vigorous growth in the field has included the development of methods and results that can be applied to an impressive range of environmental issues. The purpose of this book is to provide the reader with a current perspective on this rapidly evolving science." "The book will be of great interest to student and professional ecologists, landscape planners, and landscape architects."--BOOK JACKET.
