Complexity in Ecological Systems |

| Description: |
The demands made of ecologists today - that their discipline be predictive and considerate of large-scale ecosystems - require that they deal with increasingly complex systems. This study presents a conceptual framework for a more coherent view of ecology. |
| Synopsis: |
Offers the best general summary of the field, with a view toward fostering common disciplinary goals. Allen and Hoekstra begin with hierarchy theory as a basic premise and explain that the conventional 'levels' (ecosystems, landscapes, communities, populations, organisms) are not levels in themselves but criteria for observation. |
