Course in Mathematical and Statistical Ecology 

The focus of the book is on intensifying the ecological and evolutionary models that explains how biological components and its system change over the time. Since recent decades analyzing mathematical ecology model has been became easier for the average biologist with the help of computer aided mathematical tools and constantly engrossed mathematicians or biologist to hone their competency in solving the plethora of challenges in understanding the mathematical ecological concept. This recent edition of book not only covers the basic calculus and elementary linear algebra but also includes the ideas of more than 150 advanced undergraduate and graduate biology students. A basic knowledge of calculus and working understanding of elementary matrix manipulation are satisfactory to develop important mathematical techniques to appreciate contemporary ecology. The text has been designed to fit the present day needs of readers in understanding the mathematical model and exploring its applications in ecological systems. The content has been adapted to keep serving the modern day requirements of intermediate course in mathematics and biological domain. The book stresses on giving its readers experience of applying the mathematical models in widespread applications which are vigilantly selected based on their importance in both the domain. The purpose of these carefully picked exercises at the end of concepts is to develop a thorough learning experience with complete understanding of mathematical modeling and technique.We made enormous efforts to make the content of this book as pleasant as possible for all mathematicians, biologist, agronomist, ecologist and environmentalist. Researchers and academicians in universities may use it to extend their studying and teaching material whereas the students may use it for quick understanding of concepts and conceptual plethora about ecological model. The organization of text in different parts is done in a way such that in-depth explanation of ideas and models are well understood along with self-evaluating exercises. This edition will serve a wide range of readers’ groups with the intention of contributing towards advancement in the field of mathematical ecology.
