Community Ecology
Interactions between species are of fundamental importance to all living systems and the framework we have for studying these interactions is community ecology. Species do not live in isolation and the study of community ecology is of practical application in a wide range of conservation issues. This is important to our understanding of the planets biological diversity and how species interactions relate to the functioning of ecosystems at all scales.
In this book you will learn many of the mainstays of community analysis including: diversity, similarity and cluster analysis, ordination and multivariate analyses. The study of ecological community data involves many methods of analysis. This book is for undergraduate and postgraduate students and researchers seeking a step-by-step methodology for analysing plant and animal communities using R and Excel.
