Distribution Ecology. From Individual Habitat Use to Species Biogeographical Range. 2013. illus. XII, 217 p. gr8vo. Hardcover.

This book brings together a set of approaches to the study of individual-species ecology based on the analysis of spatial variations of abundance . Combines theoretical issues with technical developments such as mapping distributions .Addresses the limitations that still exist in understanding the relationships between scales and the importance of distribution ecology in determining key factors that affect species conservation status. - Table of contents: Part I: Concepts and definitions.- 1.
