The book discusses methods and statistical techniques that can be used to analyze spatial patterns in geographic populations. These techniques incorporate ideas from fractal geometry to develMethods in ecology.Population biologyBiogeographyBiodiversityPopulation biology.Biogeography.Biodiversity.304.6574.5248Maurer Brian A531342MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778203803321Geographical population analysis898900UNINA
