Evolutionary Ecology
Evolutionary Ecology is the study of the interaction between evolutionary processes, such as natural selection and adaptation, and ecological processes, such as adaptation to the environment. It is a field of research that combines evolutionary biology and ecology to better understand the dynamics of species and populations over time and space. Evolutionary Ecology is important for understanding the origins of biodiversity, and how organisms will respond to changes in their environment. It has a number of practical applications, such as management of endangered species, developing conservation strategies, controlling pest populations and developing new crop varieties. It can also help inform research on new biotechnologies such as gene editing.
