This book addresses each topic in the FIBKA Basic and Intermediate Examinationswith a view to assisting those studying on their own informally at home. The syllabusis a long one with over 90 topics to be considered. Until the issue of this book it wasnecessary for the student to consult a multitude of different works to acquire a thoroughunderstanding of the subject matter for examinat!on purposes. The book is a must foranyone contemplating either of the two examinations.The authors are very well qualified to prepare such a volume. They are both BBKAexaminers and Master Beekeepers and are weil familiar with the problems that confrontstudents and candidates. They are both past winners of the coveted Wax Chandler Prizefor the best results in the BBKA Senior Examinations and are the only man and wifeteam to achieve this feat.John started beekeeping during the second world war and Dawn started after theyreturned to the UK from careers in the Colonial Service, Engineering and Nursingrespectively. They are now retired in Devon and manage 20 colonies and about the samenumber of nuclei as part of their queen rearing programme each year. John has been amember for some years of the BBKA Examination Board.

  • Water from a Transdisciplinary Perspective
    Ana Isabel Pereira Cardoso / Teresinha M. Gonçalves
    Life in cities has distanced human beings from nature and made it difficult to understand the ecology of life dependent on the environment. Urban water collection and distribution processes contribute significantly to the fragmentation of knowledge and the vital recognition of the water cycle. Without the effective participation of the subject in environmental actions, it is no...

  • Modeling Populations of Adaptive Individuals
    Bret C. Harvey / Steven F. Railsback
    Ecologists now recognize that the dynamics of populations, communities, and ecosystems are strongly affected by adaptive individual behaviors. Yet until now, we have lacked effective and flexible methods for modeling such dynamics. Traditional ecological models become impractical with the inclusion of behavior, and the optimization approaches of behavioral ecology cannot be use...

    Aaron Ellison / Aaron M. Ellison / Nicholas J. Gotelli
    A groundbreaking approach to scale and scaling in ecological theory and practiceScale is one of the most important concepts in ecology, yet researchers often find it difficult to find ecological systems that lend themselves to its study. Scaling in Ecology with a Model System synthesizes nearly three decades of research on the ecology of Sarracenia purpurea-the northern pitcher...

    The essential introduction to population ecology-now expanded and fully updatedEcology is capturing the popular imagination like never before, with issues such as climate change, species extinctions, and habitat destruction becoming ever more prominent. At the same time, the science of ecology has advanced dramatically, growing in mathematical and theoretical sophistication. He...

  • Physiological Ecology
    Carlos Martínez del Rio / William H. Karasov
    Unlocking the puzzle of how animals behave and how they interact with their environments is impossible without understanding the physiological processes that determine their use of food resources. But long overdue is a user-friendly introduction to the subject that systematically bridges the gap between physiology and ecology. Ecologists--for whom such knowledge can help clarif...
  • Critical Transitions in Nature and Society
    Marten Scheffer
    How do we explain the remarkably abrupt changes that sometimes occur in nature and society--and can we predict why and when they happen? This book offers a comprehensive introduction to critical transitions in complex systems--the radical changes that happen at tipping points when thresholds are passed. Marten Scheffer accessibly describes the dynamical systems theory behind cr...
