Synopsis

This book connects and delineates the present and past states of mathematical ecology. The author has carefully chosen specific areas within a wide range of topics. These areas include population dynamics (including competing species relations and host-parasite relations)' sp[atial patterns; many species' spatial relations; composition, diversity, classification, and ordination of many species communities. The book deals with these areas in detail and equal attention is given to both plant and animal ecology. An Introduction To Mathematical Ecology is an effective guide for research workers, teachers, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates in ecology, applied mathematics, and mathematical biology.
