Description
Summary:Exploring the relationship between mathematics and ecology, Spatial Ecology focuses on some important emerging challenges in the field.

The book begins with essays on how spatial effects influence the dynamics of populations and the structure of communities. It then discusses how spatial scale and structure and dispersal behavior.
