Ecological Control and Regualtion If asked what " Ecology " is, most non-scientists may respond with 'environmental protection' or 'the nature of things'. An ecologist is often viewed as a radical environmental "Green Peace" activist. Although environmental concerns are a big part of ecology, and most ecologists want to protect the natural environment, ecology is actually something entirely different. ECOLOGY - The science that treats the spectrum of interrelationships existing between organisms and their environment and among groups of organisms. Ecology is the science that is concerned with how individual organisms and populations of organisms live together and with their environmental surroundings. The reason environmentalism and ecology get mixed up in the media is that the scientific basis of an endangered species problems come from studies ecologists have conducted determining the ecological relationship between the species and its deteriorating environmental conditions. The environmentalists use these studies as the backbone for reasons to protect and preserve our natural environments. GENERAL ECOLOGY- basics and definitions Basics of ecological understanding.

You'll find a general description of salt marsh ecology, the plants and animals, and the relationships betweeen them. http://camel2.conncoll.edu/ccrec/greennet/arbo/publications/34/CHP3A.HTM

Tidal Wetland Ecology of Long Island Sound (Part 1) Part 2 Part 3 R. Scott Warren, Professor of Botany, Paul E. Fell, Katherine Blunt Professor of Zoology, Connecticut College W etlands are transitional zones between terrestrial and aquatic systems where the water table is usually at or near the surface, or the land is actually covered by water either permanently or periodically. Wetlands typically support hydrophytes (plants adapted to wetland conditions) and the substrate is hydric (wet) mineral and/or organic soil that is usually poor to very poorly drained. Tidal wetlands occur at the land/ocean interface where daily tidal action moves water in and out of the systems. Along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the United States, tidal wetlands are found from northern Maine to southern Texas. From all but the southern tip of Florida, where mangrove swamps occur, these coastal wetlands are tidal marshes, where grasses are the predominant vegetation. Long Island Sound marshes are technically classified as Estuarine Emergent Wetlands, because the Sound is an estuary, and the vegetation emerges above the water level. Tidal Wetlands as Estuarine Ecosystems Although these wetlands have a north-south range of over 2,000 kilometers (1,200 miles), Atlantic and Gulf tidal wetlands are remarkably homogeneous in their plant and animal communities. The basic physical and biological structure of these communities comes from a few species of Cord-grass in the genus Spartina, particularly Smooth Cord-grass (

What do we know about organisms which thrive in the Arctic sea ice? Is there life in a desert of ice? Christopher Krembs Jody Deming University of Washington The flourishing life within the briny habitat of sea ice. The ice specific ecosystem includes bacteria, viruses, unicellular algae, diatom chains, worms and crustaceans. Click on the image to see a magnified view of the brine channels containing these organisms. The flourishing life within the briny habitat of sea ice is intricately linked to physical processes. Temperature controls every physical and chemical aspect of ice, including the availability of light. The most notable effect of decreasing temperature, as winter progresses and the ice solidifies, is the reduction of pore space within the ice, and the concurrent increase in the salinity of the brine. Sea ice serves as habitat for an ice-specific food web ( sympagic foodweb ] that includes bacteria, viruses

Insect Biology and Ecology: A Primer For the reader who is unfamiliar with the biology or ecology of insects, this primer will provide needed background information. This segment is comprised of several paragraphs of general insect information and five subsections: Insect Anatomy Insect Reproduction Insect Growth and Development (Metamorphosis) Insect Classification and Identification ... Insect Ecology Insects are the dominant life-form on earth. Millions may exist in a single acre of land. About one million species have been described, and there may be as many as ten times that many yet to be identified. Of all creatures on earth, insects are the main consumers of plants. They also play a major role in the breakdown of plant and animal material and constitute a major food source for many other animals. Insects are extraordinarily adaptable creatures, having evolved to live successfully in most environments on earth, including deserts and the Antarctic. The only place where insects are not commonly found is the oceans. If they are not physically equipped to live in a stressful environment, insects have adopted behaviors to avoid such stresses. Insects possess an amazing diversity in size, form, and behavior. It is believed that insects are so successful because they have a protective shell or exoskeleton, they are small, and they can fly. Their small size and ability to fly permits escape from enemies and dispersal to new environments. Because they are small they require only small amounts of food and can exist in very small niches or spaces. In addition, insects can produce large numbers of offspring relatively quickly. Insect populations also possess considerable genetic diversity and a great potential for adaptation to different or changing environments. This makes them an especially formidable pest of crops, able to adapt to new plant varieties as they are developed or rapidly becoming resistant to insecticides.

Dr. Kirk N. Hillier Department of Biology University of Utah 201 Biology Building Salt Lake City hillier@biology.utah.edu Over the past several years of my PhD, my research has brought me more than once into the field to investigate insect distributions through field trapping and aspects of moth chemical ecology. My current position in the Vicker's lab (University of Utah), has provided me with an opportunity to augment my experience with more complex laboratory analyses. More importantly, this lab looks at the very basis of insect pheromone processing, genetic and developmental control of pheromone perception and related neuroanatomy, and forming the bases of physiological moth responses to odors within the antennal lobe.

Physical Geography Working Group The Virtual Geography Department Radford Geography Department Radford University Glossary for Biogeography NOTE: Terms are arranged according to the following subject categories: biogeography, ecology, evolution, landscape ecology, and taxonomy. This should not be taken to mean that any term is limited in use or definition to a particular discipline; the arrangement is a pedagogical device to help the beginning student in biogeography to make associations among various words and processes. Each term also may be accessed through the index at the end of this document. Biogeographic terminology Alien: a non-native species, especially one introduced to some part of the world through human action. Altitudinal zonation: the sorting of plant and animal species according to elevation in response to differences in temperature and precipitation patterns. Biogeography: the science that studies the distribution of life, past and present. Colonization: the establishment of a population in a place formerly unoccupied by that species. Colonization implies successful reproduction in the new area, not simply the presence of a species there. Dispersal: the transport of propagules beyond the limits of a species' distribution area Distribution area: the geographic range of a taxon.

AMBIOS Home Page The objectives of this project are to determine the interrelationships between the physical properties of ecosystems and the ecology of organisms in the generation of biodiversity, to measure objectively the resultant diversity and to produce operational concepts of biodiversity which are of general applicability and importance. http://www.leeds.ac.uk/biology/research/europe/ambios.html

AMBIOS Home Page Integrating Environmental and Population Variation: A Model for Biodiversity Studies (AMBIOS) Areas of study: The relationships between breeding ecology, niche width and biogeographic range, and their bearing on the future dynamics of biodiversity at a time of accelerating environmental change and extinction will be studied. The development of operational concepts for assessing and describing the very basis of biodiversity will be established This will involve evaluating and comparing phenotypic and genotypic features as measures of the buffering capacity of the components of biodiversity with respect to changing environmental factors, and will be achieved by focusing on genetic heterogeneity levels and phenotypic responses in relation to the environment, and on thermal tolerance. The determination of the mechanisms involved in the transition from polymorphic, interbreeding populations to those of species status, and the elucidation of how such changes can be distinguished from phenotypic plasticity, will be addressed. Techniques for the identification of species and 'lower' taxonomic units will be developed, and new molecular methods tested in those species in which the levels of polymorphism are high.

eNewsletter Enter your email address to be subscribed to the ISE Newsletter ISE Programs The ecological crisis in which we find ourselves immersed is global in scope. In the twenty-eight years since the founding of the Institute we have witnessed an unprecedented breakdown of ecosystems which were once thought to be beyond the impact of human action: water pollution has not only inundated the world's major river systems, but now threatens the vast oceans themselves; atmospheric toxins, twenty years ago confined to localized “air pollution” and urban smog, now affect weather patterns worldwide through global warming and the depletion of the ozone layer; the vast rainforests face destruction in the next twenty years, a harbinger of a frightening loss of biodiversity, the impact of which we cannot yet predict. We are witnessing the unraveling of 3 billion years of biological evolution. The responses of the dominant political, economic and social institutions which govern our lives and the fate of the biosphere are clearly misdirected and inadequate. They are corroding the social ties that bind us to the web of life. The spread of famine despite our technological expertise; the AIDS epidemic; the “development puzzle”, exemplified by economic inequities between North and South; and the resurgence of ethnic hatred and fascistic movements around the world are all evidence of the inability of our existing social structures to develop creative solutions to the interrelated social and ecological crises in which we find ourselves mired.
