Covering the field of ecological stoichiometry, this study brings this field into its own as a unifying force in ecology and evolution. Synthesizing a range of knowledge, it shows how an understanding of the biochemical deployment of elements in organisms from microbes to metazoa gives the key to making sense of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.

Rising temperatures are affecting organisms in all of Earth's biomes, but the complexity of ecological responses to climate change has hampered the development of a conceptually unified treatment of them. In a remarkably comprehensive synthesis, this book presents past, ongoing, and future ecological responses to climate change in the context of tw

The key issue confronting empirical economics is to establish sustainable relationships that are both supported by data and interpretable from economic theory. Focusing on modeling, this book aims to give students the statistical foundations of estimation and inference, and also presents a thorough understanding of econometric techniques.

As most econometricians will readily agree, the data used in applied econometrics seldom provide accurate measurements for the pertinent theory's variables. Here, Bernt Stigum offers the first systematic and theoretically sound way of accounting for such inaccuracies. He and a distinguished group of contributors bridge econometrics and the philosop

According to the Marxist interpretation still dominant in Japanese studies, the last century and a half of the Tokugawa period was a time of economic and demographic stagnation. Professors Hanley and Yamamura argue that a more satisfactory explanation can be provided within the framework of modem economic theory, and they advance and test three imp
