Invasion Biology - Hypotheses And Evidence

66,45€ + 10% CARD

free shipping

 There are many hypotheses describing the interactions involved in biological invasions, but it is largely unknown whether they are backed up by empirical evidence. This book fills that gap by assessing research hypotheses and applying it to a number of invasion hypotheses, using the hierarchy-of-hypotheses (HoH) approach.
