Full Description

Ecological Model Types: Theories and Applications, Second Edition presents an understanding of how to quantitatively analyze complex and dynamic ecosystems with the tools available today. Recently, besides process-based models, data driven models such as machine learning methods are popularly applied in ecological and environmental models. This second edition covers both process-based models and data-driven models which are fundamental and popular in ecological modeling studies with theories and applications. It also explains how ecological modeling can assist the implementation of sustainable development as well as how mathematical models and systems analysis can describe ecological processes, which can support sustainable management of resources.
