Urban Ecosystem Ecology - Hardcover
by J. Aitkenhead-Peterson (Author), A. Volder (Editor)
If more than half of the Earth's people live in cities and the amount of paved surfaces in the United States is equivalent to the area of Ohio, shouldn't our sciences thrive in the city? Urban Ecosystem Ecology takes on the important task of reconciling environmental sciences with the world's growing urbanization. From wildlife to water, from urban agriculture to low-impact development, we need a better understanding of the urban ecosystem.
