520 3 _a"This textbook examines quantitative models and methods in ecology, behavioral ecology, evolutionary biology and conservation. It explores the core concepts shared by these related fields using tools and practical skills such as experimental design, generating phylogenies, basic statistical inference, and persuasive grant writing"--NHBS Bookstore.
