Ecological Networks in the Tropics An Integrative Overview of Species Interactions from Some of the Most Species-Rich Habitats on Earth

Ecological Networks in the Tropics An Integrative Overview of Species Interactions from Some of the Most Species-Rich Habitats on Earth / edited by Wesley Dáttilo, Victor Rico-Gray.

Based on graph theory studies this book seeks to understand how tropical species interact with each other and how these interactions are affected by perturbations in some of the most species-rich habitats on earth. Due to the great diversity of species and interactions in the tropics, this book addr...
