The Ecology of Natural Disturbance and Patch Dynamics
Urban ecological systems: linking terrestrial ecological, physical, and socioeconomic components of metropolitan areas
Ecological studies of terrestrial urban systems have been approached along several kinds of contrasts: ecology in as opposed to ecology of cities; biogeochemical compared to organismal perspectives,… Expand
Plant litter: Its dynamics and effects on plant community structure
We discuss the dynamics of plant litter, the effects of litter on the chemical and physical environment, the direct and indirect effects of plant litter on plant populations and communities, and… Expand
Ecology: Individuals, populations and communities
Urban ecological systems: scientific foundations and a decade of progress.
Urban ecological studies, including focus on cities, suburbs, and exurbs, while having deep roots in the early to mid 20th century, have burgeoned in the last several decades. We use the state factor… Expand
Space-for-Time Substitution as an Alternative to Long-Term Studies
TLDR
This chapter analyzes the benefits and shortcomings of inferring a temporal trend from a study of different aged sites using a space-for-time substitution technique. Expand
Chapter 2 – Disturbance Regimes in Temperate Forests
