Humans have directly modified half of the ice-free terrestrial surface and use 40% of terrestrial production. We are causing the sixth major extinction event in the history of life on Earth. With the Earth’s climate, flora, and fauna changing rapidly, there is a pressing need to understand terrestrial ecosystem processes and their sensitivity to environmental and biotic changes. This book offers a framework to do just that.

Ecosystem ecology regards living organisms, including people, and the elements of their environment as components of a single integrated system. The comprehensive coverage in this textbook examines the central processes at work in terrestrial ecosystems, including their freshwater components. It traces the flow of energy, water, carbon, and nutrients from their abiotic origins to their cycles through plants, animals, and decomposer organisms. As well as detailing the processes themselves, the book goes further to integrate them at various scales of magnitude—those of the ecosystem, the wider landscape and the globe. It synthesizes recent advances in ecology with established and emerging ecosystem theory to offer a wide-ranging survey of ecosystem patterns and processes in our terrestrial environment.

Featuring review questions at the end of each chapter, suggestions for further reading, and a glossary of ecological terms, Principles of Terrestrial Ecosystem Ecology is a vitally relevant text suitable for study in all courses in ecosystem ecology. Resource managers and researchers in many fields will welcome its thorough presentation of ecosystem essentials.

Required reading for qualification exam... 内容翔实，但逻辑感人。尤其是nutrients部分，读完一遍还是一头雾水，相关联的内容被分散在不同chapter里，因而还有重复，想在大脑里建立reasonable mindmap难上加难

基础入门。。。今年出的新版加了很多最前沿的东西，还是值得买的

生态系统生态学老师力荐的教科书，也是我们上课用的教材。那时被英文版吓到，但仔细看看，琢磨一下，的确是本好书，作为生态系统入门完全够了，虽然我不做这方面。但值得收藏！
