An example of ecology is studying the interactions between different species in a forest ecosystem, including how they compete for resources like sunlight and nutrients, and how they rely on each other for food and shelter.
A deer that eats plants in a forest ecosystem is an example of a consumer in ecology.
Studying ecology helps us understand how living organisms interact with each other and their environment.
Branches of ecology include population ecology (study of how populations of organisms interact with their environment), community ecology (study of interactions between species in a given area), ecosystem ecology (study of the flow of energy and matter through ecosystems), and conservation ecology (study of how to protect and preserve biodiversity).
The results of urban development are numerous. For example, urban development has lead to fewer natural green spaces, larger cities, and more jobs in urban areas.
Trust for Urban Ecology was created in 1976.
