This fully updated and expanded edition explains how to ask and answer your own research questions using compelling study design and appropriate stats. Ecology doesn't take place exclusively outdoors, so the book shares invaluable insights on topics such as identifying your goals, developing professional relationships, reading efficiently, and organizing a field season. Because the currency in ecology is publications, it also suggests effective ways to communicate your ideas through journal articles, oral presentations, posters, and grant proposals. This incisive handbook makes explicit many of the unstated rules that ecologists follow and serves as a practical resource for meaningful conversations about ecology. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis new edition includes: \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpanded emphasis on collecting and interpreting observational data\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn innovative new workshop for generating and evaluating creative research questions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelpful tips on developing the skills most important to students, navigating your career path, writing efficiently, and more\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRichard Karban\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of entomology in the Graduate Group in Ecology and Center for Population Biology at the University of California, Davis.
