Ecology Genetics and Evolution of Metapopulations Hanski Ilkka A. University of Helsinki Finland
This collection of specially commissioned articles looks at fragmented habitats, bringing together recent theoretical advances and empirical studies applying the metapopulation approach. The extensive coverage of theory from highly regarded scientists and the many substantive applications in this one-of-a-kind work make it invaluable to graduate students and researchers in a wide range of disciplines. Several chapters closely integrate ecology with genetics and evolutionary biology, and others illustrate how metapopulation concepts and models can be applied to answer questions about conservation, epidemiology, and speciation.
It is developed by recognized experts, including Hanski who won the Balzan Prize for Ecological Sciences. It provides a comprehensive and authoritative account of all aspects of metapopulation biology, integrating ecology, genetics, and evolution. It covers novel applications of the metapopulation approach to conservation.
