N2  - An important guide to assessing and managing the environment from a landscape perspective. Ecological relationships are nested within the landscape. Identifying the relevant spatial and temporal scales is critical for an effective understanding of ecological functions that human societies depend upon. Moreover, human encroachment into natural areas, or changes in climate, can alter spatial relationships, which in turn can negatively affect vital plant and wildlife patterns--and weaken economic structures needed to sustain human societies. This book is the first to combine multiple disciplines i
