Description
The contribution of biogeography in facing the current global extinction crisis. The course begins with a consideration of historical biogeography as the basis for understanding past, present and future patterns of biological diversity on earth. The principles and practice of the sub-discipline Landscape Ecology are then examined with particular emphasis given to wildlife ecology in Australia. Other ecological systems and their management may also be emphasized.
