EVOLUTIONARY ECOLOGY

英文简介

Evolutionary Ecology is a concept-oriented journal of biological research at the interface of ecology and evolution. We publish papers that therefore integrate both fields of research: research that seeks to explain the ecology of organisms in the context of evolution, or patterns of evolution as explained by ecological processes. The journal publishes original research and discussion concerning the evolutionary ecology of organisms. These may include papers addressing evolutionary aspects of population ecology, organismal interactions and coevolution, behaviour, life histories, communication, morphology, host-parasite interactions and disease ecology, as well as ecological aspects of genetic processes. The objective is to promote the conceptual, theoretical and empirical development of ecology and evolutionary biology; the scope extends to any organism or system.In additional to Original Research articles, we publish Review articles that survey recent developments in the field of evolutionary ecology; Ideas & Perspectives articles which present new points of view and novel hypotheses; and Comments on articles recently published in Evolutionary Ecology or elsewhere. We also welcome New Tests of Existing Ideas - testing well-established hypotheses but with broader data or more methodologically rigorous approaches; - and shorter Natural History Notes, which aim to present new observations of organismal biology in the wild that may provide inspiration for future research. As of 2018, we now also invite Methods papers, to present or review new theoretical, practical or analytical methods used in evolutionary ecology.Students & Early Career Researchers: We particularly encourage, and offer incentives for, submission of Reviews, Ideas & Perspectives, and Methods papers by students and early-career researchers (defined as being within one year of award of a PhD degree) – see Students & Early Career ResearchersWe publish 7 types of papers:1. Original Research articles, which present the results of empirical or theoretical research testing current ideas in evolutionary ecology;2. Review articles, which survey recent developments in the field of evolutionary ecology;3. Ideas & Perspectives articles, which present new points of view and/or novel hypotheses;4. Methods papers, to present or review new theoretical, practical or analytical methods used in evolutionary ecology (as of 2018);5. Comments on articles recently published in Evolutionary Ecology or elsewhere;6. New Tests of Existing Ideas, which present tests of well-established hypotheses but with broader data or more methodologically rigorous approaches;7. Natural History Notes, which present new observations of organismal biology in the wild that may provide inspiration for future evolutionary ecology research.

中文简介

《进化生态学》是一种以概念为导向的生物研究期刊，处于生态学与进化论的结合点。因此，我们发表的论文综合了这两个领域的研究:寻求在进化的背景下解释生物体生态学的研究，或用生态过程解释进化模式的研究。该杂志发表有关生物进化生态学的原始研究和讨论。这些可能包括关于种群生态学的进化方面的论文，生物相互作用和共同进化，行为，生活史，交流，形态学，宿主-寄生虫相互作用和疾病生态学，以及遗传过程的生态学方面。目的是促进生态学和进化生物学的概念、理论和经验发展;范围扩展到任何有机体或系统。除了原创的研究文章，我们还发表综述文章，调查进化生态学领域的最新发展;提出新观点和新假设的文章;以及对最近发表在《进化生态学》或其他杂志上的文章的评论。我们还欢迎对现有观点进行新的检验——检验已确立的假设，但要使用更广泛的数据或更严格的方法;-以及较短的《自然历史笔记》，旨在展示对野外生物有机体的新观察，可能为未来的研究提供灵感。截至2018年，我们还邀请了方法论文，来展示或回顾进化生态学中使用的新的理论、实践或分析方法。学生和早期职业研究人员:我们特别鼓励并提供奖励，鼓励学生和早期职业研究人员(定义为在获得博士学位的一年内)提交评论、观点和方法论文(参见学生和早期职业研究人员)我们发表7种类型的论文:1. 原始的研究论文，其中提出的经验或理论研究的结果，测试当前的想法在进化生态学;2. 综述综述进化生态学领域最新进展的文章;3.提供新观点和/或新假设的观点和观点文章;4. 方法:提交或审查进化生态学中使用的新的理论、实践或分析方法(截至2018年);5. 对最近发表在《进化生态学》或其他杂志上的文章发表评论;6. 对现有观点的新测试，即对已确立的假设进行测试，但采用更广泛的数据或更严格的方法;7. 《自然历史笔记》(Natural History Notes)提供了对野外有机体生物学的新观察，可能为未来的进化生态学研究提供灵感。
