However, spatial patterns change over time. In Temporal Dimensions of Landscape Ecology: Wildlife Responses to Variable Resources, the authors discuss the effects that temporal changes in resources have on animal populations. Resource availability and quality are not distributed homogeneously over time, depending for example on predictable changes in seasons, mating and birthing cycles, unpredictable resource pulses and weather-related phenomena, ecological disturbances, and historical legacies. Temporal Dimensions of Landscape Ecology brings together chapters that address the idea of current as well as historical temporal influences on resource availability, quality, and distribution. The authors draw attention to the neglected temporal issues so important to understanding species and community responses. This book will be of interest to both wildlife and conservation students and practitioners working with temporal and spatial scale issues. 0aLIFE SCIENCES. 0aANIMAL ECOLOGY. 0aENDANGERED ECOSYSTEMS. 0aLANDSCAPE ECOLOGY. 0aENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT. 0aNATURE CONSERVATION.14aLIFE SCIENCES.24aLANDSCAPE ECOLOGY.24aANIMAL ECOLOGY.24aECOSYSTEMS.24aPOPULATION ECOLOGY.24aENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT.24aNATURE CONSERVATION.1 aStorch, Ilse.eeditor.2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer eBooks08iPrinted edition:z978038745445040uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-45447-4zVer el texto completo en las instalaciones del CICY
