Title: Ecology Basics
Description: Magill's Choice: Ecology Basics offers 132 in-depth essays covering the fundamental scientific concepts taught in biology, environmental science, and general and introductory ecology courses. Alphabetically arranged, these topics range from the level of individual organisms and their interactions with the environment through the levels of populations of organisms and communities of more than one species, to the level of ecosystems and global ecology. These two volumes provided broad and descriptive, nonmathematical coverage of ecology, not only as the interaction of organisms with their environment and the processes that influence the abundance and distribution of organisms but also in the sense of ecosystem ecology. All levels taught in introductory courses, from individual organisms to populations, communities, and global issues, are considered.
