Sinopse

Arctic Megafauna reveals a surprising past where the Arctic, now icy and barren, once thrived as a rich ecosystem supporting giant mammals. These Ice Age mammals, including the woolly mammoth and woolly rhinoceros, challenge our understanding of the Arctic environment's capacity to sustain life. The book explores the evolutionary adaptations that allowed these megafauna to flourish, such as thick fur and migration patterns, providing insights into how species adapt to extreme cold—lessons relevant for contemporary climate change challenges.

 
The book delves into the paleoclimate of the Pleistocene epoch, reconstructing the "mammoth steppe" and examining factors contributing to the megafauna extinction, like climate change and human hunting. By analyzing paleontological data, genetic analyses, and climate modeling, the book progresses from introducing key species and their adaptations to discussing environmental conditions and extinction theories.

 
This comprehensive approach offers a unique perspective on the Arctic, moving beyond simple narratives of the Ice Age.

    Population Fluctuations in Rodents

    How did rodent outbreaks in Germany help to end World War I? What caused the destructive outbreak of rodents in Oregon and California in the late 1950s, the large population outbreak of lemmings in Scandinavia in 2010, and the great abundance of field mice in Scotland in the spring of 2011? Population fluctuations, or outbreaks, of rodents constitute one of the classic problems of animal ecology, and in Population Fluctuations in Rodents, Charles J. Krebs sifts through the last eighty years of research to draw out exactly what we know about rodent outbreaks and what should be the agenda for future research.           Krebs has synthesized the research in this area, focusing mainly on the voles and lemmings of the Northern Hemisphere—his primary area of expertise—but also referring to the literature on rats and mice. He covers the patterns of changes in reproduction and mortality and the mechanisms that cause these changes—including predation, disease, food shortage, and social behavior—and discusses how landscapes can affect population changes, methodically presenting the hypotheses related to each topic before determining whether or not the data supports them. He ends on an expansive note, by turning his gaze outward and discussing how the research on rodent populations can apply to other terrestrial mammals. Geared toward advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, and practicing ecologists interested in rodent population studies, this book will also appeal to researchers seeking to manage rodent populations and to understand outbreaks in both natural and urban settings—or, conversely, to protect endangered species.
