Welcome to the

Department of Theoretical Ecology
Teoretisk ekologi



Theoretical ecology is the study of the fundamental forces and processes determining the course of evolution and how ecological systems are assembled and maintained. By its nature, Theoretical ecology therefore transgresses almost all levels of biological organization. Since natural systems are complex, the tools of the trade are mathematics, statistics and computer simulations. Theoretical ecology shares the common scientific attitude that we indeed can reveal generalities and the lawful behaviors of nature despite the awesome and overwhelming diversity of life on Earth.
