Hi
I am trying to find a good, classical book or review about disturbance ecology.
Any advice would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!
One classic book on disturbance ecology that would be highly recommended is "The Ecology of Natural Disturbance and Patch Dynamics" by Simon Levin, Thomas Pickett, and Jonathan Shugart. This influential book explores the role of disturbance in shaping ecological patterns and processes, such as succession, community dynamics, and biodiversity.
Another important text in the field of disturbance ecology is "Disturbance Ecology" by David B. Lindenmayer, Philip S. Burton, and Jann Williams. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the ecological impacts of disturbances, including natural events like fire, storms, and flooding, as well as human-induced disturbances such as logging and urbanization.
For a more focused review article on disturbance ecology, you may want to look into scientific journals that publish research in this area, such as "Ecology," "Journal of Ecology," or "Ecosystems." These journals often feature review articles that synthesize current knowledge and advances in disturbance ecology research.
However, "The Ecology of Natural Disturbance and Patch Dynamics" and "Disturbance Ecology" are both excellent classical books that provide a strong foundation in the principles and concepts of disturbance ecology. They would be valuable resources for anyone interested in exploring this field further.
