Newton, I.; Keith Brockie(Illus.) - Population Limitation in Birds

Title: Population Limitation in Birds
Description: Academic Press 1998 x, 597, 130 b/w illus, figs, tabs. . PB. Vg.. An understanding of the processes of population limitation is central to the study of ecology, whether in birds or in other organisms. It also provides the basis for the practical management of wild populations, whether for conservation or for sustained human exploitation. Population Limitation in Birds, which expands on Lack's research in the 1950s, provides a coherent synthesis of findings on bird populations from various parts of the world. The 16 chapters fall under three major section headings: behaviour and density regulation; natural limiting factors; and human impacts.. [9780125173667]
