Network thinking and network analysis are rapidly expanding features
of ecological research. Network analysis of ecological systems include
representations and modelling of the interactions in an ecosystem, in
which species or factors are joined by pairwise connections. This book
provides an overview of ecological network analysis including
generating processes, the relationship between structure and dynamic
function, and statistics and models for these networks. Starting with
a general introduction to the composition of networks and their
characteristics, it includes details on such topics as measures of
network complexity, applications of spectral graph theory, how best to
include indirect species interactions, and multilayer, multiplex and
multilevel networks. Graduate students and researchers who want to
develop and understand ecological networks in their research will find
this volume inspiring and helpful. Detailed guidance to those already
working in network ecology but looking for advice is also included.
