This is a standard in the discipline of vegetation ecology and probably the best introductiion to the field. This is a thoroughly revised new edition of the original book from 1986. It is a good introduction to the various methods available for analysis of vegetation data, like correspondence analysis, principle components analysis and regression analysis. A good point about this book is that consistently works with the same example dataset for explaining all different analysis methods. This clearly shows the differences in outcome of the different methods. A bad point is that its not always written very clearly and includes some very theoretical parts.

Esse livro é excelente para estudos e análises ecológicos de vegetação e ordenação com técnicas multivairada.

A easy reading and comprehensive book about data analysis in community and landscape ecology. This is the book that every young ecologist should have in his/her bookshelf
