Paperback. Condizione: Fair. This book provides a first synthetic view of an emerging area of ecology and biogeography, linking individual- and population-level processes to geographic distributions and biodiversity patterns. Problems in evolutionary ecology, macroecology, and biogeography are illuminated by this integrative view. The book focuses on correlative approaches known as ecological niche modeling, species distribution modeling, or habitat suitability modeling, which use associations between known occurrences of species and environmental variables to identify environmental conditions under which populations can be maintained. The spatial distribution of environments suitable for the species can then be estimat.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. This book provides a first synthetic view of an emerging area of ecology and biogeography, linking individual- and population-level processes to geographic distributions and biodiversity patterns. Problems in evolutionary ecology, macroecology, and biogeography are illuminated by this integrative view. The book focuses on correlative approaches known as ecological niche modeling, species distribution modeling, or habitat suitability modeling, which use associations between known occurrences of species and environmental variables to identify environmental conditions under which populations can be maintained. The spatial distribution of environments suitable for the species can then be estimated: a potential distribution for the species. This approach has broad applicability to ecology, evolution, biogeography, and conservation biology, as well as to understanding the geographic potential of invasive species and infectious diseases, and the biological implications of climate change. The authors lay out conceptual foundations and general principles for understanding and interpreting species distributions with respect to geography and environment.Focus is on development of niche models. While serving as a guide for students and researchers, the book also provides a theoretical framework to support future progress in the field.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. The original Japanese title can be translated as The Trap of Beauty . In the foreword, the author explains that this is a translation of the Birds of the Valley by Miguel Cervantes de Saavedra. The translator Ryuu Nakamura misunderstood that the author was Spanish; he mentions in the preface that the book was translated from the French language. This is a very rare example of a translation of a masterpiece by Miguel Cervantes.  Translators from Western languages into Japanese often simplified the stories to make them easier for Japanese readers to comprehend, leaving the stories to have little in common with the originals. This is, however, essentially what Cervantes himself did with Birds of the Valley , which was published in 1613 in Madrid and as part of the collection El casamiento enganoso (or A Fake Marriage, with  Alférez Campuzano as the main character): it was an adaptation from Italian to Spanish of Boccaccio's Decamerone.  The black and white illustrations in this edition were made by Ogata Gekko, a celebrated Japanese artist.  Original cardboard cover. Cloth spine. Occasional rubbing on the cover. The spine is damaged. The ex-owner has a small inscription on the cover. Ink dirt on the extremities of the first few pages. Minor foxing on the contents. Otherwise it is in very good condition. Text in Japanese. …
