Shepherding Nature
With stories about species on the brink, this book explores the causes and consequences of conservation reliance and its implications.
People, Forests, and Change
Forests throughout the world are undergoing rapid, far-reaching change as a result of natural and anthropogenic disturbances. The challenge is to manage these forests in ways that avoid formulaic approaches to complex issues. This book takes on the challenge of balancing local economies, wood products, and biodiversity by proposing diverse new approaches to forest management using new research from the moist coniferous forests of the Pacific Northwest. --

Proceedings, Symposium on Plant-Herbivore Interactions, Snowbird, Utah, August 7-9, 1985
Fourth in a series of proceedings of symposia on wildland shrubs, this publication brings together current knowledge of interactions between plants and herbivores. Topics addressed by the 31 papers include plant chemistry, palatability, nutrition and physiology, herbivore foraging behavior, and plant response to browsing.
Sources, Sinks and Sustainability
Source-sink theories provide a simple yet powerful framework for understanding how the patterns, processes and dynamics of ecological systems vary and interact over space and time. Integrating multiple research fields, including population biology and landscape ecology, this book presents the latest advances in source-sink theories, methods and applications in the conservation and management of natural resources and biodiversity. The interdisciplinary team of authors uses detailed case studies, innovative field experiments and modeling, and comprehensive syntheses to incorporate source-sink ideas into research and management, and explores how sustainability can be achieved in today's increasingly fragile human-dominated ecosystems. Providing a comprehensive picture of source-sink research as well as tangible applications to real world conservation issues, this book is ideal for graduate students, researchers, natural-resource managers and policy makers.
