摘要
The recent development of computerized Geographic Information Systems, particularly those based on 'vector models', has provided ecologists with a facility for dividing areas of heterogeneous habitat into clearly defined, biologically meaningful subunits. These units, or 'polygons', provide an alternative framework to the more traditional grid system for a variety of types of study. © 1990.
