Nel libro vengono esaminati lo stato di conservazione della biodiversità, i problemi, gli sforzi e le prospettive in alcune parti dei paesi del Corno d’Africa, ovvero Gibuti, Eritrea, Etiopia e Somalia. La popolazione umana in continua crescita, che supera i 100 milioni di persone, e varie questioni socio-economiche, ambientali e culturali sono indicate come sfide per l’attuazione dei programmi di conservazione della biodiversità in questa regione. Questa regione presenta diversi tipi di ecosistemi, quali altipiani, zone afro-alpine, pianure, deserti e aree costiere con una topografia variegata e tipi di vegetazione correlati al livello di precipitazioni nelle rispettive aree. La biodiversità della regione del Corno d’Africa è inoltre caratterizzata da un elevato livello di endemismo. Nella regione sono presenti due hotspot di biodiversità, ovvero l’hotspot di biodiversità del Corno d’Africa e l’hotspot di biodiversità afro-montana orientale. Oltre 1.300 specie di piante e animali della regione sono elencate nelle categorie della lista rossa dell’IUCN. Molte delle risorse di biodiversità della regione hanno un alto potenziale per l’uso umano. Tuttavia, non sono ancora stati intrapresi studi dettagliati sulle risorse di biodiversità della regione del Corno d’Africa e sulla sua conservazione.

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...
