The metropolis besides having its socio-economic importance can be sustainable, some authors advocate compact cities as sustainable because the concentration of people centralized near their jobs and the diversity of trade optimize and minimize the displacement reducing transportation costs and consequently reducing the emission of pollutants from vehicles whether from public transport or private and consequent centralization of public services reducing costs saving the public purse.

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • Gestion de l’environnement dans les régions métropolitaines
    Sidnei Ribeiro Souza
    La métropole, outre son importance socio-économique, peut être durable. Certains auteurs considèrent que les villes compactes sont durables parce que la concentration des personnes à proximité de leur emploi et la diversité des échanges commerciaux optimisent et minimisent les déplacements, réduisant ainsi les coûts de transport et, par conséquent, les émissions de polluants de...
