On the other hand, landscape ecology refers to the study of interactions between ecological processes and ecosystems. It is an essential part of systems science. This book aims to develop the relationship between spatial and landscape ecology and its utmost significance in modern times. The various studies that are constantly contributing towards advancing technologies and evolution of this field are examined in detail in the text. As this field is emerging at a fast pace, this book will help the readers to better understand the concepts of spatial and landscape ecology. Scientists and students actively engaged in this area will find the book full of crucial and unexplored concepts. 3
