Macroecology for microbiology.
To microbiologists, the term macroecology may conjure iconic images of wildebeests grazing in African savannahs or hummingbirds pollinating flowers in a tropical rain forest. Contrary to what the name implies, macroecology is not the ecological study of macroscopic organisms. Rather, macroecology is the study of ecological relationships through patterns in abundance, distribution and diversity....
متن کاملNeutral macroecology.
The central themes of community ecology-distribution, abundance, and diversity-display strongly marked and very general patterns. These include the log-normal distribution of abundance, the relation between range and abundance, the species-area law, and the turnover of species composition. Each pattern is the subject of a large literature that interprets it in terms of ecological processes, typ...

متن کاملMacroecology meets IPBES
The Intergovernmental Platform for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES), established in 2012 to counter the biodiversity crisis, requires the best scientific input available to function as a successful science-policy interface that addresses the knowledge needs of governments for safeguarding nature and its services. For the macroecological research community, IPBES presents a great oppo...
متن کاملMethod in macroecology
Macroecology is concerned with understanding the abundance and distribution of species at large spatial and temporal scales. Understanding pattern and process in macroecology thus presents a considerable methodological challenge, as the scales of interest are simply too large for the traditional ecological approach of experimental manipulation to be possible or ethical. Here, I summarise the me...
