product Description:
Plant ecology is the scientific study of the factors influencing the distribution and abundance of plants. This benchmark text, extremely well received in its first edition, shows how pattern and structure at different levels of plant organization--from ecophysiology through population dynamics to community structure and ecosystem function--are influenced by abiotic factors (eg, climate and soils) and by biotic factors (eg, competition and herbivory). Adopting a dynamic approach, this book combines descriptive text with theoretical models and experimental data. It will be invaluable reading for both student and practising ecologist alike. http://rapidshare.com/files/290475304/0632036397.part1.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/290482477/0632036397.part2.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/290478595/0632036397.part3.rar
