Description: Theoretical ecology deals with the principles of the interaction and dynamics of ecosystems basic to the wealth of ecological phenomena. The contributions to the first international workshop on ecodynamics mainly take a deductive approach to theoretical ecology and its application to epidemiology, forest damage and fishery. The book concentrates on strategies of modeling, evolution, population dynamics, the dynamics of ecostems, mechanisms of control and nonlinearity. It presents new methods such as the statistical dynamical analysis of evolution strategies or interactive micro simulations, thus giving a comprehensive overview of current developments in theoretical ecology.
