520 1 _a"Ecological Applications offers a progressive examination of the way ecological theory can be applied to remedy the many problems confronting us. The text moves through the levels of individual organisms, populations, communities, and ecosystems, culminating with the macroecological scale of landscape, regional, and global issues. The book is designed to grab the reader's interest with real-life problems but also to instil an understanding of the fundamentals of ecology."--BOOK JACKET.
