A companion volume to Wildlife Habitat Management of Forestlands, Rangelands and Farmlands, this professional guide describes direct habitat management techniques for a wide variety of North American game and nongame species. Written in a practical, hands-on style and offering tried-and-proven methods for improving, preserving and developing wetlands with optimum results, the author shows exactly how to implement the full range of manipulation techniques. The book is aided by hundreds of drawings, charts and tables that clearly illustrate key concepts. In addition, a valuable appendix containing a review of the various wetland classification systems is included and more than 700 references are cited. This comprehensive sourcebook provides all the tools needed to give wildlife managers and students a practical understanding of wildlife management principles and practices.
A techniques manual on wetland habitat improvement, meant to serve as a practical guide and sourcebook of ideas and techniques for resource managers to adapt and modify regionally in the US and Canada, and elsewhere where applicable, as they plan and develop habitat improvement projects; and a training guide for aspiring wildlife managers. Details impractical to include are provided in the extensive references. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
This introductory textbook to wildlife habitat ecology and management offers students and practitioners the basic tools to understand, plan, implement, measure, analyze, and document efforts to improve habitat for wildlife. Providing a step-by-step guide that is adaptable to a range of environmental settings, the authors first lay out the ecological principles applicable to any project. They then take the reader through various sampling designs, measurement techniques, and analytical methods required to develop and complete a habitat project, including the creation of a report or management plan. The authors emphasize key management concepts and provide exercises putting ecological principles into practice. Case studies identify emerging issues that are changing and complicating wildlife habitat management. These include large-scale ecological concerns and their social and political challenges—global climate change, the decline in water quality and availability, loss and fragmentation of habitat, broadening invasive species and diseases, increased human-wildlife conflicts, and urbanization. This practical guide is an invaluable reference for students, land managers, and landowners who are developing and implementing management plans for habitat modification and improvement on both private and public lands.
"The book contains the essential information that wildlife biologists and managers use to manage wildlife populations today, and it gives students the information they need to pursue a profession in wildlife management and conservation"--
