Progress Report on the Analysis and Synthesis of the Historical Range of Variability in Ecosystem Structure and Function of Inland West Forests - Implications for Ecological Restoration

Management activities such as fire suppression, overgrazing, and selective logging since Euro-American settlement of the Inland West have resulted in forest ecosystems that are in a poor ecological condition. Current proposals to restore these forest ecosystems to their presettlement conditions suffer from the lack of a comprehensive assessment of the historical range of variability in ecosystem structures and functions of these forests.

Workshops on Apex Predators in Marine Systems: Final Report to NCEAS

The world's marine and freshwater fisheries give strong evidence of extensive and continued overexploitation. That raises important questions about the role of fishing as a major ecological force that can substantially alter the demographic characteristics of targeted species and their role in a food web or ecosystem context. In an ecological sense, one can view fishery exploitation as a "press" experiment and the changes evoked by strong management actions as a "pulse" experiment.

NCEAS interim report on the application of geostatistics in ecology

Geostatistics is a field of statistics that focuses on measuring and modeling variation through space and/or time. Geostatistical methods were originally developed for applications in the earth sciences. Recently there has been growing interest in the use of these methods for studying landscape-level ecological problems. While many ecologists have recognized the potential uses of geostsatistics in ecology, many of these applications have not occurred because there are no texts that are written in a way that ecologists can understand.
