Principles of Terrestrial Ecosystem Ecology

Best ecosystem book I have ever bought. Highly recommend

I am taking this class at UC Berkeley and this is the required text. As a senior, ready to graduate in Environmental Sciences, I find this book to be very lucid and helpful. Thank you for writing such an awesome textbook that neither dumbs down the material nor makes it more difficult than it needs to be. Great writing!Anyone interested in the basics of terrestrial ecosystem ecology or needing a review should buy this book. I will happily keep it on my shelf as a reference for many years to come.

This was an assigned reading for a graduate course I took. The book had a wonderful format and was easy to follow. I liked the follow up questions at the end of each chapter to test your knowledge on what you finished reading. If you enjoy ecology this is a good general book that covers a variety of topics.

An excellent scientific book. The amount and quality of information is superb. The index, bibliography, references and illustrations give this book an intense depth of knowledge about all the subjects pertaining to environmental science and ecosystems. It shows how the interdependence and symbiotic relationships of many different subsystems in a complex ecosystem are mapped out. A good example is on page 216 where the "net ecosystem carbon balance" is illustrated.

Text is clear and of easy to read. Think that students of Ecosystem Ecology courses will take advantage of this good book

Book came as "new" it seemed. When I took it out of the box it looked as if someone took an xacto knife and tried to cut the back cover off. I tried taping and gluing the cover back on which was ok. The chapters are informative and easy to follow. Had to buy for a college class.

Excellent text book, well worth having the physical copy if you are studying this subject. Learned a ton

Great book! I have the first version of this book published ten years ago. This 2nd version hasmany pieces of up-to-date information on terrestrial ecosystem ecology.A nice book.

I've just started reading, so I can't tell you much about the information in this book, however, I've noticed that there are many creased pages although it is a new book. Unfortunately, I started to mark phrases right away, so I cannot send it back. Furthermore, on many of the creased pages the text wasn't printed correctly (photos).

Il libro è arrivato in meno di un giorno, in ottime condizioni e con rilegatura robusta e flessibile. Non mi aspettavo immagini a colori al suo interno. Molto positiva l'abbondanza di diagrammi a dispersione, grafici e tabelle, indice si tratti di un testo serio e non soltanto divulgativo. Nel complesso mi ritengo molto soddisfatto dell'acquisto!
