Increasing acknowledgment of the importance of scale testifies to the shifting focus in large areas of ecology. In the rush to explore problems of scale, another general aspect of ecolog ical systems has been given less attention. This aspect, equally important, is heterogeneity. Its importance lies in the ubiquity of heterogeneity as a feature of ecological systems and in the number of questions it raises questions to which answers are not readily available. What is heterogeneity? Does it differ from complexity? What dimensions need be considered to evaluate heterogeneity ade quately? Can heterogeneity be measured at various scales? Is heterogeneity apart of organization of ecological systems? How does it change in time and space? What are the causes of heterogeneity and causes of its change? This volume attempts to answer these questions. It is devoted to iden tification of the meaning, range of applications, problems, and methodol ogy associated with the study of heterogeneity. The coverage is thus broad and rich, and the contributing authors have been encour | | 出版日期 | Book 1991 | | 关键词 | complexity; desert; ecology; ecosystem; environment | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4612-3062-5 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4612-7781-1 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4612-3062-5Series ISSN 0070-8356 Series E-ISSN 2196-971X | | issn_series | 0070-8356 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag New York Inc. 1991 |
