ABOUT THE BOOK The present book entitle 'Vermitechnology, Vermiculture, Vermicompost and Earthworms' reflects the uses of earthworms to degrade some dangerous and toxic weeds which poses a serious environmental health problem throughout the world. The book inculcates about the conversion of some dangerous and toxic weeds into useful manure by using vermitechnology. Moreover, it also presents the comparison between conventional method of composting and vermitechnology using earthworm species Eisenia foetida. I hope that the book will be helpful to scientists, environmentalists, agriculturalist, zoologists, biotechnologist, health scientists, NGOs, researchers and doctors etc. The present research data would be inspirable to the use of vermiculture rather than chemical fertilizer.

    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...
