索书号：Q141 E19C 2016

著者：Jørgensen, Sven Erik

出版社：Elsevier

出版年：2016

简介：Ecological Model Types brings an understanding on how to quantitatively analyze complex and dynamic ecosystems with the tools available today. Ecosystem studies widely use the notions of order, complexity, randomness, and organization, and are used interchangeably in literature, which causes much confusion. Bridges the gap between statistical analysis and synthesis of data, enhancing our understanding about ecosystems and their environmental problems.

Phylogenies In Ecology

Multicellularity

馆藏地：主馆A400阅览室

索书号：Q343 M961M 2016

著者：Niklas

出版社：MIT Press

出版年：2016

简介：The evolution of multicellularity raises questions regarding genomic and developmental commonalities and discordances, selective advantages and disadvantages, physical determinants of development, and the origins of morphological novelties. It also represents a change in the definition of individuality, because a new organism emerges from interactions among single cells. This volume explore the origins and consequences of the evolution of multicellularity, addressing a range of topics, organisms, and experimental protocols.

Genomic and Precision Medicine: Translation and Implementation
