miękka okładka
Zbiór prac omawiających stan badań nad siewkami.
More than 30 species of plover (genus Charadrius) have provided key insights shaping theory across a wide range of ecological sub-discipline. Many of these species are also threatened because they live where human population is greatest. The editors have organized a group of international specialists to write a series of multi-authored chapters. The Ecology and Conservation of Plovers Charadrius has a strong applied emphasis. The book will be of great use to conservationists worldwide. The book is organized into sections corresponding to the annual cycle of each taxon. As such, it will use the Full Life Cycle Biology approach championed by researchers spearheading conservation of migratory species worldwide.
