Price and Ian Billick. 330 $aEcologists can spend a lifetime researching a small patch of the earth, studying the interactions between organisms and the environment, and exploring the roles those interactions play in determining distribution, abundance, and evolutionary change. With so few ecologists and so many systems to study, generalizations are essential. But how do you extrapolate knowledge about a well-studied area and apply it elsewhere? Through a range of original essays written by eminent ecologists and naturalists, The Ecology of Place explores how place-focused research yields exportable general knowledge as well as practical local knowledge, and how society can facilitate ecological understanding by investing in field sites, place-centered databases, interdisciplinary collaborations, and field-oriented education programs that emphasize natural history. This unique patchwork of case-study narratives, philosophical musings, and historical analyses is tied together with commentaries from editors Ian Billick and Mary Price that develop and synthesize common threads. The result is a unique volume rich with all-too-rare insights into how science is actually done, as told by scientists themselves. 606 $aEcology$xLongitudinal studies$vCongresses 606 $aEcology$xResearch$vCongresses 615 0$aEcology$xLongitudinal studies 615 0$aEcology$xResearch 676 $a577.072 701 $aBillick$b Ian$f1966-$01807451 701 $aPrice$b Mary V$g(Mary Vaughan),$f1949-$01807452 712 02$aRocky Mountain Biological Laboratory. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910967698103321 996 $aThe ecology of place$94357163 997 $aUNINA
