Sobre IBD

Marine science is the study of the flora and fauna existing in the oceans. It also studies the physical as well as chemical properties of the ocean. It is an inter disciplinary field and branches out into sub-fields such as marine biology, physical oceanography, marine geology and many others. The objective of this book is to give a general view of the different areas of marine science, and its applications. It is a vital tool for all researching or studying this field as it gives incredible insights into emerging trends and concepts.

  • Water from a Transdisciplinary Perspective
    Ana Isabel Pereira Cardoso / Teresinha M. Gonçalves
    Life in cities has distanced human beings from nature and made it difficult to understand the ecology of life dependent on the environment. Urban water collection and distribution processes contribute significantly to the fragmentation of knowledge and the vital recognition of the water cycle. Without the effective participation of the subject in environmental actions, it is no...

  • Modeling Populations of Adaptive Individuals
    Bret C. Harvey / Steven F. Railsback
    Ecologists now recognize that the dynamics of populations, communities, and ecosystems are strongly affected by adaptive individual behaviors. Yet until now, we have lacked effective and flexible methods for modeling such dynamics. Traditional ecological models become impractical with the inclusion of behavior, and the optimization approaches of behavioral ecology cannot be use...
