It has long been recognized as an important factor affecting ecosystem dynamics. Dispersal is apparently a phenomenon of biological origin; however, because of its complexity, it cannot be studied comprehensively by biological methods alone. Deeper insights into dispersal properties and implications require interdisciplinary approaches involving biologists, ecologists and mathematicians. The purpose of this book is to provide a forum for researches with different backgrounds and expertise and to ensure further advances in the study of dispersal and spatial ecology. This book is unique in its attempt to give an overview of dispersal studies across different spatial scales, such as the scale of individual movement, the population scale and the scale of communities and ecosystems. It is written by top-level experts in the field of dispersal modeling and covers a wide range of problems ranging from the identification of Levy walks in animal movement to the implications of dispersal on an evolutionary timescale.Mathematical Biosciences Subseries,2524-6771 ;2071BiomathematicsApplied mathematicsEngineering mathematicsEcologySystem theoryMathematical modelsMathematical and Computational Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M31000Applications of Mathematicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13003Theoretical Ecology/Statisticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19147Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19007Complex Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13090Mathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14068Biomathematics.Applied mathematics.Engineering mathematics.Ecology.System theory.Mathematical models.Mathematical and Computational Biology.Applications of Mathematics.Theoretical Ecology/Statistics.Ecology.Complex Systems.Mathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematics.577.0151Lewis Mark A.1962-edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMaini Philip K.edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPetrovskii Sergei V.edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910733710103321Dispersal, individual movement and spatial ecology258676UNINA
