Introduction to Ecological Modelling\n\nMike Gillman (Author), Rosemary Hails (Author)\n\n9780632036349, Wiley\n\nPaperback / softback, published 27 February 1997\n\n216 pages\n25 x 20 x 1.5 cm, 0.312 kg\n\n\""Teachers of courses on ecological modelling will find [this book] a useful source-book at a competitive price.\"" \n\nAt present, most books on ecological modelling rely on very complex mathematics, resulting in students and researchers shying away from investigating the potential uses of ecological models and their methods of construction. \nThis new book aims to open up this exciting area to a much wider audience. Assuming only basic mathematical knowledge, the text uses case studies to show how a relatively small set of techniques of model construction can be used in a wide range of important applications. Researchers will find it an invaluable guide to using ecological models in their work.\n--Uses case studies to clearly demonstrate the applications of ecological models. \n-]
