Since most ecological interactions are rooted in adaptive evolution, students learn to placeecological problems in an evolutionary context, thinking critically instead of just memorizing facts. This text develops scientific reasoning skills by teaching students not just what we know about the field, but also how we know what we know about it.Ecology: Evolution, Application, Integration is distinguished by the following approaches:* Integrates modern evolutionary theory throughout* Highlights applications and connections to the real world* Emphasizes inquiry, critical thinking, and the process of science* Presents quantitative topics clearly and in real-world applied contexts
This text uses an evolutionary approach and focuses on ecosystems, communities, populations, and organisms. It also integrates some environmental problems to emphasize the relevancy of the field. It contains balanced coverage of all topics.
