Biogeography

So I need a place to cache stuff that seems especially relevant to this subject, long one of my interests and obviously an opportunity for GIS.

Science 21 Jan 2000 Daszak et al. "Emerging infectious diseases of wildlife --threats to biodiversity and human health (pp 443-449)

Seems to me it should be practical to teach the course using ONLINE ARTICLES in Science (which we'll presumably have access to by then), Nature, the JSTOR ecology journals...

Here's a list of kw=biogeography books from Annie, sorted by year of publication.

Some Pointers to GIS in Environmental Biology

An article in Science for 25 August: Richard J. Abbott et al. Molecular analysis of plant migration and refugia in the Arctic (289:1343-1346) got me thinking about this subject again, and wondering about the methods. I looked into the cited article on methods and retrieved its online version from Am. J. Botany:
