Summary: | I Introduction: micro-methodology The diverse nature of biogeography has often been commented upon (e.g., Meadows 1997, 1999) and the very varied nature of the techniques used to approach biogeographical problems is equally impressive. What is surprising, especially as we observe the development of biogeography over the last decade or so, is that macro-problems are increasingly being answered by micro-methods. Just as biology and ecology are increasingly moving into and drawing upon the sub-cellular disciplines, so we see the emergence of a new discipline of molecular biogeography. |
