It is the first textbook on the subject by eminent Indian researchers and presents most of the examples from the Indian subcontinent. The book covers a wide range of topics, including fundamental concepts required to comprehend the physical environment, population dynamics, community characteristics, patterns and gradients in biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and dynamics, and the study of biogeography. It also addresses applied topics such as environmental pollution, impact assessment, natural resource management, biodiversity conservation, ecosystem services, global climate change, ecosystem restoration, urban ecology and sustainable development. The main issues are discussed within the sustainability framework, considering humans as part of ecosystems, and recognising that sustainable development requires the integration of ecology with social sciences for policy formulation and implementation. The updated edition of the book aligns with the National Education Policy 2020 and the revised UGC Guidelines. It aims to meet the needs of students in basic and multidisciplinary courses in ecology and environmental science, as well as professionals in agriculture, forestry and geography at both the graduate and postgraduate levels.\u003cbr\u003e\nTable of Contents:\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 1: Ecology: Concepts, History, and Applications\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 2: Solar Radiation and Temperature\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 3: Plant Water Relations and Adaptations\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 4: Soil and Belowground Interactions\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 5: Fire and Disturbance Ecology\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 6: Adaptations, Ecotypes and Genecology\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 7: Population Ecology: Characteristics, Growth Regulation and Genetics\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 8: Species Interactions\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 9: Community: Nature, Structure, Attributes and Control\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 10: Methods of Sampling Vegetation and Data Analysis\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 11: Community Dynamics: Succession\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 12: Ecosystem Structure, Functioning and Processes\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 13: Primary Productivity and Detritus Pool\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 14: Energy Flow Beyond Primary Producers: Secondary Production and Decomposition\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 15: Ecosystems Nutrient Cycling\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 16: Global Biogeochemical Cycles\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 17: Biogeography and Life Zones\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 18: Biome: Concept, Distribution and Characteristics\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 19: Freshwater and Marine Ecosystems\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 20: Air And Noise Pollution\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 21: Water Pollution\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 22: Soil Pollution - Metals, Pesticides, Wastes and Isotopes\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 23: Environmental Impact Assessment\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 24: Global Climate Change\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 25: Stratospheric Ozone Depletion and Trends of Recovery\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 26: Biological Invasion: Process, Impacts and Prevention\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 27: Natural Resources and Their Management\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 28: Biodiversity: Magnitude, Gradients, and Hotspots\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 29: Biodiversity Conservation\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 30: Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 31: Ecological Restoration\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 32: Ecosystem Services, Their Valuation and Payment\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 33: Human Population And Urbanisation\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 34: Sustainable Development\u003cbr\u003e\nReferences\u003cbr\u003e\nIndex\u003cbr\u003e\nUseful for:\u003cbr\u003e\nGraduate, Postgraduate and Various Competitive Exams\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789364681124\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"S Chand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51307367661872,"sku":"UDH_9789364681124","price":638.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/516HpEICtGL.jpg?v=1775612099","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/ecology-environmental-science-and-conservation-2e-2025-2026-book-by-js-singh-sp-singh-sr-gupta-rishikesh-singh-fire-and-disturbance-ecology-ecosystem-structure-attributes-and-control-pollution-air-and-noise-water-pollution-soil-globa","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
