Ecology is the study of interactions between organisms and their environment. It's a broad field, spanning biology, engineering, policy, and environmental management. There are numerous ecology ...

We are told the natural world is ‘breaking down’. But forests don’t work like aeroplanes or human hearts ...

Back in the early 1990s, climate scientists were still working with clunky computers, patchy satellite records, and models ...

Forests and streams are separate but linked ecosystems, existing side by side, with energy and nutrients crossing their porous borders and flowing back and forth between them. For example, leaves fall ...

This integrative study area allows students to investigate the relationships of organisms to their environment and those factors that affect their distribution and abundance. Both the practical and ...

In light of these pressing global ecological challenges, there is a compelling need to develop ecological theories and applied technologies for understanding, managing, and conserving macroecological ...

Across the world, rainforests are becoming savanna or farmland, savanna is drying out and turning into desert, and icy tundra is thawing. Indeed, scientific studies have now recorded “regime shifts” ...

Four fundamental processes shaping biodiversity should be taken into account to explain why some ecosystems are more sensitive than others to human impacts such as climate change and habitat ...

Many of today's artificial intelligence systems loosely mimic the human brain. In a new paper, researchers suggest that another branch of biology -- ecology -- could inspire a whole new generation of ...

Artificial intelligence is reshaping relationships by providing conversation and companionship, and reshaping how people work ...
