The second volume of this series, Integrating Ecology into Global Poverty Reduction Efforts: Opportunities and solutions, builds upon the first volume, Integrating Ecology into Global Poverty Reduction Efforts: The ecological dimensions to poverty, by exploring the way in which ecological science and tools can be applied to address major development challenges associated with rural poverty.

Archaeological field schools, notably in North America but also across the world, are seminal student experiences.

Remote sensing has witnessed a renaissance as new sensor systems, data collection capabilities and image processing methodologies have expanded the technological capabilities of this science into new and important applications areas.

Most of the papers included here were part of the Plenary Sym- posium on The Testing of General Ecological Theory in Lotic Ecosys- tems held in conjunction with the 29th Annual Meeting of the North American Benthological Society in Provo, Utah, April 28, 1981.

In 1980, a group of scientists from national laboratories, universities, and other research organizations gathered informally in a series of meetings to consider the state of research on risks to health, safety, and the environment.

In the last decade, disputes between developers and local commu- nities over proposed construction projects have led to increasing litiga- tion.

This book focuses on neighborhoods and the people living in them.

Among living vertebrates bats and birds are unique in their ability to fly, and it is this common feature that sets them apart ecologically from other groups.

The First Conference on Engineering Probability in Flood Defense was orga- nized by the Department of Mathematics and Informatics of the Delft U niver- sity of Technology and the Department of Industrial Engineering and Opera- tions Research of the University of California at Berkeley, and was held on June 1,2 1995 in Delft.

Federal disaster policy is an important but overlooked aspect of federal action that has provided a rich arena for pursuing our more general research interests concerning federal program implementation and management.

Public attention has focused in recent years on an array of technological risks to health, safety, and the environment.

One of the greatest challenges facing those concerned with health and environmental risks is how to carry on a useful public dialogue on these subjects.
