Editorial Reviews
Review
Reviews of the previous edition:“Ecological modelling is obviously a huge area, and this book, which is both an overview and a how-to guide, covers an enormous amount of it.” –Ecology and Biogeography Letters
“Excellent synoptique.” –Information Eaux
“…this book will be an invaluable source of information for a variety of engineers and ecologists, who have a mathematical background and may wish to gain an introduction to the rapidly growing field of ecological and environmental modelling. This book will also be very adequate for courses on this subject.” –International Journal of Environmental Analytical Chemistry
Review
Ecological Modeling, 4e, provides professionals with an overview of the most common ecological model types used today as well as the practical how-to methods for creating effective models in research and management situations
