Sobre IBD

Forestry is the practice of managing, planning, using, conserving and preserving the forests. Forestry management deals with administrating all the legal, social, scientific and technological aspects of forest regulation. It also includes managing urban values, wilderness, wood products, forest genetic resources, etc. This book traces the progress of this field and highlights some of its key concepts and applications. It unravels the recent studies conducted in this area. The topics covered in this book will provide the readers new insights in the subject. It is an essential guide for both academicians and those who wish to pursue this discipline further.

    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...
