About this book

Advances in Ecological Research is one of the most successful series in the highly competitive field of ecology. This thematic volume focuses on large scale ecology, , in which papers highlight the novel insights that can be gained from studying ecological processes that occur over long temporal and large spatial scales. This volume contains twelve papers that approach this theme from different perspectives: empirical papers draw on data collected over decades and/or up to hundreds of kilometres in marine, freshwater, or terrestrial habitats, while wide-ranging reviews call for unification of scales and methods.

Biography

Dr. Alex Dumbrell works at the School of Biological Sciences, University of Essex, UK.

Guy Woodward is Professor of Ecology in the Department of Life Sciences at Imperial College London and Series Editor for Advances in Ecological Research. He has authored over 100 peer-reviewed publications, including recent papers in Nature, Science and Nature Climate Change, with a strong emphasis on understanding and predicting how aquatic ecosystems and food webs respond to a wide range of biotic and abiotic stressors, including climate change, chemical pollution, habitat degradation and invasive species. Much of this work covers multiple scales in space and time and also a range of organisational levels – from genes to ecosystems. His research group and ongoing collaborations span the natural and social sciences, reflecting the need for multidisciplinary approaches for addressing the environmental challenges of the 21st century.
