Ecology of Teleost Fishes

This text is intended for final-year undergraduates and postgraduates, but may be useful for research workers, who wish to see their research in a wider context. It assumes a knowledge of contemporary ecological ideas, looking at how themes emphasized in the first edition have developed and contributed to the contemporary understanding of fish ecology. The recognition of the importance of understanding the responses of individual fish is illustrated by the development of individual-based models that simulate patterns of growth, mortality and reproduction in populations.
