Ecological Processes Handbook: 8

“… presents an overview of the multi-faceted reality of ecosystems. However, far from being a simple collection of particular aspects of the environment, the book presents a comprehensive vision of ecosystems based on thermodynamics, viewed as a unifying principle which every evolutionary system must obey.”––Stefano Marsili Libelli, Department of Information Engineering, University of Florence, Italy
“… the authors take the reader on a comprehensive journey through the key processes that help one understand ecology―particularly for the application of environmental management. … The authors bring many years of expertise and experience to this topic, which is evident in the broad, synthetic treatment of the material. This Handbook would be a valuable resource …” ―Brian D. Fath, Towson University
