商品描述
Behavioral Ecology is a rapidly evolving field that integrates the study of animal behavior with ecological and evolutionary processes. By examining how organisms interact with each other and their environments, this discipline provides essential insights into the mechanisms that shape biodiversity and influence the dynamics of ecosystems.
Behavioral Ecology: Initial Dialogues and Approaches offers an accessible introduction to the key concepts, tools, and methods used in Behavioral Ecology. Rather than serving as a comprehensive textbook, it is designed to complement teaching in Animal Behavior and Behavioral Ecology courses, while also guiding undergraduate and graduate students who are beginning to explore this area of science.
Grounded in decades of teaching experience across institutions in Brazil and abroad, the author presents the field through a combination of theoretical foundations, methodological approaches, and case studies. The text highlights the relevance of Behavioral Ecology in advancing scientific knowledge, while also addressing its role in professional development, research opportunities, and international collaboration. Clear, structured, and informed by practical experience, Behavioral Ecology: Initial Dialogues and Approaches provides readers with the analytical tools necessary to design and interpret behavioral studies. It emphasizes hypothesis-driven research, experimental design, and the interpretation of behavioral data, making it a valuable resource for biologists, veterinarians, animal scientists, and experimental psychologists.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
行為生態學是一個快速發展的領域，將動物行為的研究與生態和進化過程相結合。通過檢視生物體之間及其與環境的互動，這一學科提供了對塑造生物多樣性和影響生態系統動態的機制的重要見解。
《行為生態學：初步對話與方法》提供了對行為生態學中關鍵概念、工具和方法的易懂介紹。它並不是一本全面的教科書，而是旨在補充動物行為和行為生態學課程的教學，同時指導開始探索這一科學領域的本科生和研究生。
作者基於在巴西及國外多年的教學經驗，通過理論基礎、方法論方法和案例研究的結合來介紹這一領域。文本強調行為生態學在推進科學知識方面的相關性，同時也探討其在專業發展、研究機會和國際合作中的角色。《行為生態學：初步對話與方法》以清晰、結構化的方式，並結合實踐經驗，為讀者提供設計和解釋行為研究所需的分析工具。它強調以假設為驅動的研究、實驗設計和行為數據的解釋，使其成為生物學家、獸醫、動物科學家和實驗心理學家的寶貴資源。
作者簡介
Kleber Del Claro is a Brazilian scientist and professor whose research focuses on behavioral ecology and the ecology of interactions. He is very well known in Brazil and in Latin-speaking countries for his books on Animal Behavior and the courses he makes available for free on social media. The author served twice as president of the Brazilian Society of Ethology (Sociedade Brasileira de Etologia), and is a highly regarded professor and advisor, sought after by his students. He has supervised 78 Master's students, 27 PhDs, 17 post-docs, and over 80 undergraduate students in scientific initiation projects. Kleber is a member of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (Conselho Nacional para o Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico), known as CNPq, holding the highest level of recognition, 1A (Senior Researcher). He has been a Full Professor at the Federal University of Uberlândia (Universidade Federal de Uberlândia) since 1992. With over 245 publications (the majority with his students) and several international books, including the organization of an encyclopedia for UNESCO, the author states that his greatest interest is to serve through education. He firmly believes that the collective "we" should always take precedence over the individual "I." In his view, the pursuit of being better and more useful in our daily lives--by serving science, education, and the community--should guide our life journeys.
作者簡介(中文翻譯)
Kleber Del Claro 是一位巴西科學家和教授，他的研究專注於行為生態學和互動生態學。他在巴西及拉丁語系國家因其有關動物行為的書籍以及在社交媒體上免費提供的課程而廣為人知。該作者曾兩度擔任巴西行為學會（Sociedade Brasileira de Etologia）會長，是一位備受尊敬的教授和顧問，深受學生的追捧。他指導過78位碩士生、27位博士生、17位博士後研究員，以及超過80位參與科學啟蒙計畫的本科生。Kleber 是國家科學與技術發展委員會（Conselho Nacional para o Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico，簡稱 CNPq）的成員，擁有最高級別的認可，1A（資深研究員）。自1992年以來，他一直擔任烏貝蘭迪亞聯邦大學（Universidade Federal de Uberlândia）的正教授。擁有超過245篇出版物（大多數與他的學生共同撰寫）和幾本國際書籍，包括為聯合國教科文組織編輯的一本百科全書，該作者表示他最大的興趣是通過教育來服務。他堅信集體的「我們」應始終優先於個人的「我」。在他看來，追求在日常生活中變得更好和更有用——通過服務科學、教育和社區——應該指導我們的人生旅程。
