Their migration, dispersal and foraging activities connect water and land habitats within and across continents. Drawing upon the wide-ranging experience of the authors, the book takes an inherently interdisciplinary approach that serves to introduce the reader to the topic of aeroecology, frame some of the basic biological questions that can be addressed within the context of aeroecology, and highlight several existing and emerging technologies that are being used to promote aeroecological studies. The book begins with several background chapters, that provide introduction into such topics as atmospheric science, the concept of the habitat, animal physiology, and methods of navigation. It then continues with a broad discussion of observational methods available to and used by aeroecologists. Finally, several targeted examples of aeroecological studies are presented. Following the development of the chapters, the reader is provided with a unifying framework for investigating how the dynamic properties of meteorological conditions at local, regional, and global scales affect the organisms that depend on the air for foraging and movement. Material presented in the book should be of interest to anyone wishing to gain a comprehensive understanding of the aerosphere itself and the myriad airborne organisms that inhabit and depend upon this environment for their existence. The material should be accessible to a diverse set of readers at all stages of training and across a range of research expertise. 606 $aZoology 606 $aAnimal ecology 606 $aMeteorology 606 $aBioinformatics 606 $aGeoecology 606 $aEnvironmental geology 606 $aZoology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25007 606 $aAnimal Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19015 606 $aMeteorology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/312000 606 $aComputational Biology/Bioinformatics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I23050 606 $aGeoecology/Natural Processes$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U21006 615 0$aZoology. 615 0$aAnimal ecology. 615 0$aMeteorology. 615 0$aBioinformatics. 615 0$aGeoecology. 615 0$aEnvironmental geology. 615 14$aZoology. 615 24$aAnimal Ecology. 615 24$aMeteorology. 615 24$aComputational Biology/Bioinformatics. 615 24$aGeoecology/Natural Processes. 676 $a573.798 702 $aChilson$b Phillip B$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFrick$b Winifred F$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKelly$b Jeffrey F$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aLiechti$b Felix$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910279577903321 996 $aAeroecology$92111565 997 $aUNINA
