BOOK EXCERPT:
This classic text, whose First Edition one reviewer referred to as"the ecologists' bible," has been substantially revised andrewritten. Not only have the advances made in the field since theSecond Edition been taken into account, but the scope has beenexplicitly extended to all macroscopic animals, with particularattention being paid to fish as well as other vertebrates. Ecological Methods provides a unique synthesis of themethods and techniques available for the study of populations andecosystems. Techniques used to obtain both absolute and relativepopulation estimates are described, and approaches to the directmeasurement of births, deaths, migration and the construction andinterpretation of life tables are reviewed. The text is extensively illustrated, clearly describing a widerange of equipment and methods of analysis. Comprehensive andup-to-date bibliographies to each chapter fully cover the relevantliterature, and references are given to available computer programsand internet addresses. The book has an active web site providingadditional illustrations, details of equipment and programs, andreferences to work published since the revision was completed. Likethe earlier editions, this book will be an indispensable source ofreference to researchers and students at all levels in the fieldsof ecology, entomology and zoology. Completely revised and rewritten edition of a classic. Scope extended to all macroscopic animals, notably fish andother vertebrates. Active web site displaying additional material. References to computer programmes and internet addressesthroughout the text. Affordable paperback.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book covers the statistical concepts of sampling in agricultural pest management. These can be summarised as how to obtain sample data from the field and how to use the data in decision-making. Options may include introducing natural enemies, spraying with pesticide, or adopting a wait-and-see approach. Some prior knowledge of pests and how they interact with crops is required of the reader, but only minimal mathematical background is assumed. Worked examples using the mathematical software program Mathcad are also included.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book aims (1) to lay out the historical underpinnings of the areawide pest (including weeds, plant and stored grain insect pests) management (AWPM) and to highlight current activity in the field; (2) to delve into concepts that have direct impact on the successful implementation of AWPM, which include: (i) biological and ecological concepts important for understanding the dynamics of populations in spatially heterogeneous environments; (ii) the critical role of inter-agency and multidisciplinary interactions in the development and implementation of AWPM programmes, which are often complex inter-agency and intergovernmental endeavours; (iii) the roles of modelling, meteorology and databases in AWPM programmes which, by their nature, are information intensive; and (iv) the importance of economic and sociological evaluation in successful AWPM implementation; and (3) to compile recent case examples of pest management programmes that have used the AWPM approach. A survey in presented on a wide variety of programmes developed for protecting agricultural and natural resource systems and which use a wide range of pest management tactics.
