Those of you interested in ecological succession theory might be interested
in, "A Theory of Forest Dynamics: The Ecological Implications of Forest
Succession Models" by Herman H. Shugart, recently brought back into print.
It "has been a seminal publication describing the ecological processes
controlling the dynamics of forest ecosystems."
Intended for scientists and graduate students in ecology, forestry and
climatology, the book includes a review of ecological succession, coverage
of forest dynamics models and detailed analysis of several models of forest
succession. The models are applied to ecological problems on scales ranging
from small forest gaps to entire landscapes and over years to millennia.
The Blackburn Press recently returned the book to print, making it again
available to scholars, students, libraries and researchers who would like to
own or replace a copy of this classic book.
