The work also reviews abiotic factors of light, temperature, physiography (landforms and topography), soil, and disturbance (especially fire), and provides coverage of ecosystem-level topics including carbon storage and balance, nutrient cycling, and forest ecosystem productivity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe 5th edition of \u003ci\u003eForest Ecology\u003c\/i\u003e retains the readability and accessibility of the previous editions and includes important additional topical material that has surfaced in the field. All topics are approached with a landscape ecosystem or geo-ecological view, which places biota (organisms and communities) in context as integral parts of whole ecosystems that also include air (atmosphere and climate), topography, soil, and water. As such, the book fills a niche utilized by no other forest ecology text on the market, helping students and researchers consider whole ecosystems at multiple scales.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSample topics covered in \u003ci\u003eForest Ecology\u003c\/i\u003e include:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eContemporary components of forest ecology, including climate change, invasive species, diversity, ecological forestry, landscape ecology, and ecosystem services.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCharacteristics of physiography important for forest ecosystems, including its effects on microclimate, disturbance, soil, and vegetation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGenetic diversity of woody plants and genecological differentiation of tree species, including the importance of hybridization, polyploidy, and epigenetics.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSite quality estimation using tree height and ground flora, and multiple-factor approaches to forest site and ecosystem classification and mapping.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eForest Ecology\u003c\/i\u003e is a highly accessible text for students, but it also serves as an excellent reference for academics.
