Pages : 261
Book Description
The loss and fragmentation of natural habitats is one of the major issues in wildlife management and conservation. Habitat "corridors" are sometimes proposed as an important element within a conservation strategy. Examples are given of corridors both as pathways and as habitats in their own right. Includes detailed reviews of principles relevant to the design and management of corridors, their place in regional approaches to conservation planning, and recommendations for research and management.

Saskatchewan Fire Regime Analysis

Pages : 68
Book Description
This study analyzes the number of forest fires in Saskatchewan, the area burned, the fire cycle, the fire season, causes of fires, potential fire intensity, and the fire climate for two types of ecological units: ecozones & ecoregions. Analyses are performed for all forested ecozones: the boreal plain, the boreal shield, & the taiga shield. For ecoregions, only those of the boreal plain were considered. The analysis is based on 20 years (1981-2000) of fire occurrence (ignition) data, a database of large (over 200 hectare) fires for 1945-2000, and 12 years (1990-2001) of daily fire weather observations. The results reveal contrasts in the fire regime of ecozones & ecoregions and illustrate important variations in the fire regime in both time & space.

Book Description
This best-selling majors ecology book continues to present ecology as a series of problems for readers to critically analyze. No other text presents analytical, quantitative, and statistical ecological information in an equally accessible style. Reflecting the way ecologists actually practice, the book emphasizes the role of experiments in testing ecological ideas and discusses many contemporary and controversial problems related to distribution and abundance. Throughout the book, Krebs thoroughly explains the application of mathematical concepts in ecology while reinforcing these concepts with research references, examples, and interesting end-of-chapter review questions. Thoroughly updated with new examples and references, the book now features a new full-color design and is accompanied by an art CD-ROM for instructors. The field package also includes The Ecology Action Guide, a guide that encourages readers to be environmentally responsible citizens, and a subscription to The Ecology Place (www.ecologyplace.com), a web site and CD-ROM that enables users to become virtual field ecologists by performing experiments such as estimating the number of mice on an imaginary island or restoring prairie land in Iowa. For college instructors and students.
