Description:
In recent years, there have been major technological innovations allowing important microbial mechanisms and interactions with arthropods that drive carrion decomposition to be described. This book fills a historical information gap in the ecology of decomposing animal organic matter. Covers the molecular mechanistic foundations that provide the foundation for intra- and interspecific interactions related to population biology, community ecology, and how this manifests into habitat- and ecosystem-level importance.
Brings together a team of world-renowned scientists involved with measuring and understanding the process and effects of carrion ecology in nature, with special application in such applied fields as forensic entomology, animal science, and human and environmental health
Presents the molecular mechanistic foundations that provide the foundation for intra- and interspecific interactions related to population biology, community ecology, and how this manifests into habitat and ecosystem-level importance
Addresses practical issues such as waste or animal decomposition on a large scale
