Observation and Ecology : Broadening the Scope of Science to Understand a Complex World.
The need to understand and address large-scale environmental problems that are difficult to study in controlled environments-issues ranging from climate change to overfishing to invasive species-is driving the field of ecology in new and important directions. Observation and Ecology documents that t...
