    Model Systems in Behavioral Ecology: Integrating Conceptual, Theoretical, and Empirical Approaches

    Model Systems in Behavioral Ecology: Integrating Conceptual, Theoretical, and Empirical Approaches By Lee Alan Dugatkin (editor)
    2001 | 584 Pages | ISBN: 0691006520 | PDF | 17 MB


    A key way that behavioral ecologists develop general theories of animal behavior is by studying one species or a closely related group of species—"model systems"—over a long period. This book brings together some of the field's most respected researchers to describe why they chose their systems, how they integrate theoretical, conceptual, and empirical work, lessons for the practice of the discipline, and potential avenues of future research. Their model systems encompass a wide range of animals and behavioral issues, from dung flies to sticklebacks, dolphins to African wild dogs, from foraging to aggression, territoriality to reproductive suppression. Model Systems in Behavioral Ecology offers an unprecedented ''systems'' focus and revealing insights into the confluence of personal curiosity and scientific inquiry. It will be an invaluable text for behavioral ecology courses and a helpful overview—and a preview of coming developments—for advanced researchers. The twenty-five chapters are divided into four sections: insects and arachnids, amphibians and reptiles, birds, and mammals.
