Call for papers in experimental ecology from the Nature publishing group, and thought it might be of interest to several people in our department. https://www.nature.com/collections/dehcbeeeac
Ecology—the study of the relationships between living organisms and their environment—is a wide-ranging area of research. Technological progress and data sharing are increasingly enabling ecologists to carry out observational studies at unprecedented large scales. Yet, experimental ecology remains needed to address questions in both basic and applied research. Manipulative experiments are key to testing ecological hypotheses and validating causal relationships, providing us with insights needed to tackle the growing environmental and biodiversity challenges that the world faces. Therefore, the editors of Nature Communications, Communications Biology, Communications Earth & Environment and Scientific Reports invite submissions of papers highlighting the contributions that can be made with experimental ecology.
Submission deadline: 06 May 2024
