Many ecological processes take place in the tropics and not at all in temperate or boreal regions. Moreover many tropical habitats are threatened by human population growth and by human activities. This textbook provides an introduction to the principles of tropical ecology. Included are chapters on tropical climatology, diversity, biogeography, tropical biomes, the relationships between tropical habitats and their organisms, and the future of the tropics.
