Ecologia e historia natural de la Patagonia Andina. Un cuarto de siglo de investigacion en biogeografia, ecologia y conservacion. 2014. illus. 256 p. gr8vo. Hardcover. - In Spanish.
This book describes the natural history and functioning of the ecosystems of the Andean Patagonia in plain language that is accessible to all audiences. From the origin and evolution of taxa, the climatic history and disturbances that these ecosystems have suffered, the close interrelationships between species that maintain biodiversity and ecological functions, to human-nature relationships, not only from the perspective of anthropogenic impacts, but also from the novel perspective of understanding ecosystems as providers of environmental goods and services, without which our existence would become impossible.
