Description
Since the woods, grassland and farmland of the 1000 hectare Wytham Estate in Oxfordshire, England, came to the University of Oxford in 1943, the Estate has been the subject of an immense amount of research. The pioneering studies of Charles Elton and colleagues laid some of the foundations of ecological science in the 1950s while students today gather insights using the latest technology from DNA analysis to remote sensing from drones and satellites. Wytham Woods: How a Landscape Works provides an account of one of the most researched landscapes in Britain, charting its evolution over the last 10,000 years. The book's focus is on the most recent studies conducted at Wytham Woods, continuing the story of the earlier book (Wytham Woods: Oxford's Ecological Laboratory), to include work on the carbon balance, forest dynamics and grassland restoration as well as links to conservation in other parts of Britain. This new volume also synthesizes long-term work on badgers and great tits and new understanding of the archaeology and history of the Estate. It highlights how Wytham is an influential node in a global network of research sites which continues to shape our understanding of ecology world-wide, from microbes to global climate change. Written by scholars and experts, this volume combines different strands to show how and why the landscape has developed as it has and where it might go in future as climate change, new tree diseases, and changing public policies impact the Woods and the surrounding Estate. Combining new research and interpretations of a world-famous site, this volume is an engaging exploration of the past, present and future of the Wytham Estate and provides insights that can be applied more widely both in Britain and across the world.
