Scientists have created a research framework to incorporate ecological theory—mathematical models and concepts to understand interactions and dynamics of ecosystems—into ecosystem management and ...

As ecologists expand the range and depth of ecological theory they necessarily integrate advanced modeling techniques and computational tools to produce increasingly complex models. This increase in ...

The complexity of ecosystems poses a formidable challenge for validating ecological models. The prevailing inability to falsify models has resulted in an accumulation of models but not an accumulation ...

An ecological theory may help to explain why segregation is so widespread and persistent in US cities, according to a paper published today in Buildings and Cities. The new way of framing ...
