The Application Of Fractal Geometry To EcologyPrinciples of Ecology 310L
Abstract
New insights into the natural world are just a few of the results from the use
of fractal geometry. Examples from population and landscape ecology are used to
illustrate the usefulness of fractal geometry to the field of ecology. The
advent of the computer age ...

Euclidean GeometryGeometry was thoroughly organized in about 300 BC, when the Greek
mathematician Euclid gathered what was known at the time, added original work of
his own, and arranged 465 propositions into 13 books, called 'Elements'. The
books covered not only plane and solid geometry but also much of what is ...

Euclid And His WorksEuclid's Facts
Euclid was born about 365 BC in Alexandria, Egypt and died about 300 BC.
Euclid was best known for his treatise on geometry (The Elements). The
long lasting nature of The Elements must make Euclid the leading
mathematician of all time. But little is known of Euclid's life ...
