生态学的一些概念英文版

An ecosystem is self-sustaining if the following requirements are met:
1. A constant source of energy and a living system capable of incorporating this energy into organic molecules. 2. A cycling of materials between organisms and their environment.
Ecology:
• the study of the interactions of living things with each other and their physical environment
Ecological Organization:
1. Population: all the members of a species inhabiting a given location 2. Community: all the interacting populations in a given area 3. Ecosystem: the living community and the physical environment functioning together as an independent and relatively stable system
• Since practically all organisms may be consumed by more than one species, many interactions occur along the food chains of any community.

生态学的一些概念英文版

• The carrying capacity of the environment is limited by the available abiotic and biotic resources, as well as the ability of ecosystems to recycle the residue of dead organisms through the activities of bacteria and fungi.
2. A cycling of materials between organisms and their environment.
• In all environments, organisms with similar needs may compete with each other for resources, including food, space, water, air, and shelter.

自然科学——生态学基本内容英文

What are the Characteristics of Living Things?
All living organisms share five basic properties:
1. Cellular Organization – cell is basic unit of life 2. Metabolism – use energy 3. Homeostasis - maintain stable internal conditions 4. Growth and reproduction 5. Heredity living things come from living things Information for traits coded in DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)
Populations – single organisms – basic unit in ecology - fill a niche (‘job’ or function) communities - populations of many types of organisms
ecosystems: All organisms living in an area, and the physical environment (habitat) with which these organisms interact.
• Populations • All the members of one species that live in the same area make up a population.
• Community • The population of organisms that inhabit a particular area and interact with one another form a community. • Thus a community can be comprised of hundreds of different types of life forms. The study of how organisms of a community relate to one another and with their non-living environment is called "ecology".

生态学资料讲解

生态学一、名词解释1、Ecology（生态学）：The scientific study of the interactions between organisms and their environments.2、Ecosystem（生态系统）：The biotic community together with the abiotic factors; all the interactions within the biotic community and between the abiotic factors.3、Environment（环境）：The sum total of physical and biotic conditions influencing the responses organisms4、Ecological factors（生态因子）：Ecological factors refers to the growth of organisms in the growth,development, reproduction, behavior and distribution environmental factors have a direct or indirect influence5、Ecological amplitude（生态幅）：Each kind of environmental factor to adapt the size of that ecological amplitude range6、Population（种群）：a group of organisms of the same type, or species, living together in the same area7、Population growth（种群增长）：the number of individuals in a population increases or decreases with time8、Age structure（年龄结构）：the proportions of each individual in each age class.9、Life table（生命表）：A life table is an age-specific account of mortality(Life table provide a summary of how survial and reproductive rates vary with the age of the organisms.)10、Intrinsic rate of increase（内禀增长率）：The difference between birth rate and death rate is the intrinsic growth rate内禀增长率(r) (instantaneous per capita rate of growth瞬时人均增长率).11、Ecological strategy（生态策略）：Ecological Strategy (life history Strategy) describe the anatomical, physiological and behavioural adaptations control how individuals invest in reproduction and self-maintenance in response to their environmental conditions12、S-curve（”s”型曲线）：Natural mechanisms come into play and cause the population to level off and continue in a dynamic equilibrium. This pattern is known as the S-curve13、J-curve（”J”型曲线）：In the absence of natural enemies, the population keeps growing until it exhausts essential resources - usually food - and then dies off precipitously due to famine and, perhaps, diseases related to malnutrition. This pattern is known as a J-curve14、R-strategy（r策略）：R-strategy is to produce massive numbers of young but then leave survival to the whims of nature. This strategy results in very low recruitment15、K-strategy（k策略）：K-strategy is to have a much lower reproductive rate but then care for and protect the young to enhance recruitment16、Niche（生态位）：Niche includes temporal and spatial positions of population (individual) and functional interactions with relative populations (individuals).17、Community（群落）：A community is a group of interacting populations that occupy the same area at the same time.18、Dominant species（优势种）：Species have a community impact that is proportional to its biomass19、Succession（自然演替）：Ecological succession is the sequence of community changes aftera disturbance20、Food chain（食物链）：pathways where one organism is eaten by a second, which is eaten by a third, each such pathway is called a food chain21、Food web（食物网）：all food chains are interconnected and form a complex web of feeding relationships-food web22、Abiotic factors（非生物的因素）：All the factors(physical and chemical factors) of the environment.23、Biotic factors（生物因素）：a kind of influence factors of biological morphology, growth, development and distribution of any other animal, plant or microbial activities of ecological factors.24、Primary Succession（原生演替）：the sequence of species on newly exposed landforms that have not previously been influenced by a community, e.g., areas exposed by glacial retreat.25、Species（物种；种类；类型；[逻辑] 个体）：All the members of a specific kind of plant, animal, or microbe; a kind given by similarity of appearance；capacity for interbreeding and producing fertile offspring.26、Biotic community（生物群落）：All the populations of different plants, animals, microbes occupying a given area.27、Autotroph（自养生物，靠无机物质生存的生物）：Organisms which produce their own organic material from inorganic constituents in the environment using an external energy source, are autotrophs .28、Heterotrophs（异养生物）：Organisms which must consume organic material to obtain energy and nutrients, are heterotrophs .29、Ecotone（群落交错区）：One ecosystem may gradate into the next through a transitional region, known as an ecotone.30、Trophic structure（营养结构）：The major feeding relationships between organisms are the trophic structure .31、Photosynthesis（光合作用）：Most producers are green plants, which use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water to glucose and then release oxygen as a byproduct. This chemical conversion, which is driven by light energy, is called photosynthesis.using light energy, producers make sugar (glucose, stored chemical energy) from carbon dioxide and water, release oxygen gas as a byproduct.【6CO2 + 12H2O →C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2Ocarbon water light glucose oxygen waterdioxide energy (gas)(gas) input(low potential energy) (high potential energy)】二、问答题1、Why biodiversity is important？（生物多样性的重要性）生物多样性是地球生物圈与人类本身延续的基础，具有不可估量的价值。

——wikiAn individual is a person or a specific object.种群（英语：Population，或称种群）在生态学上，是在一定空间范围内同时生活着的同种生物的全部个体；或者说是有个体组成，能够而且确实进行交配的群体。

——wiki种群（population）指在一定时间内占据一定空间的同种生物的所有个体。

——baiduA population is a summation of all the organisms of the same group or species, who live in the same geographical area, and have the capability of interbreeding.群落群落（英语：Biocoenosis）或称为“生物群落”。

生存在一起并与一定的生存条件相适应的动植物的总体群落生境是群落生物生活的空间，一个生态系统则是群落和群落生境的系统性相互作用。

——wiki群落community 亦称生物群落(biological community)。

生物群落是指具有直接或间接关系的多种生物种群的有规律的组合，具有复杂的种间关系。

我们把在一定生活环境中的所有生物种群的总和叫做生物群落，简称群落。

——baidu生态学定义：在相同时间聚集在同一地段上的各物种种群的集合[1]。

A biocenosis (biocenose, biocoenose, biotic community, biological community, ecological community), coined by Karl Möbius in 1877, describes the interacting organisms living together in a habitat (biotope).生态系统生态系统(Ecosystem)是指在一个特定环境内，其间的所有生物和此一环境的统称。

Ecology (生態學)IntroductionEcology -- __________________________________________________________ Concept of the ecosystem - The biosphere and biomes•Bioshpere生物圈o The part of the Earth and its atmosphere inhabited by life is called biosphereo Thus, the oceans, land surface and lower parts of the atmosphere all form parts of the biosphere.•Biome生物群落o The biosphere can be divided into biomes which are linked by a common type of vegetation.o Forests, deserts and grasslands are the examples of biomes. Each biome consists of many ecosystems in which communities have adapted to differences in climate,soil, and other environmental factors throughout the biome.A. The Ecosystem生態系統An ecosystem is defined as a complex formed by the living community of different species interacting with one another and with their non-living environment of matter and energy to result in a stable and self-sustainable system.Components of an ecosystem :living community and non-living component•A population 種群consists of all members of the same species occupying a given area at the same time.• A community 群落consists of Populations of all the different species interacting with one another• A habitat生境is a small specific place where an organism lives.- types of habitats :terrestrial habitat ---- forest, ___________________aquatic habitat ---- fresh water : pond, lake, reservoir, __________ •marine : sandy shore, muddy shore, ___________________A habitat can divide into numerous microhabitats小生境, each with_____________________________________________________________________________________•The niche生態位of a species describes the role of specific species in its community.Niches are sometimes distinguished from habitats by saying that the habitat of anorganism is its address, while its niche is its role in the community.e.g. on a tree : caterpillars (feed on leaves),beetles (burrow into trunk)they live on same place but functionally they occupy different niches.•The biotic (living) factors生物的are comprised by all living organisms within the ecosystem.•The abiotic (non-living) 非生物的factors are mainly divided into soil, water and climate.o Water is essential for all living organisms in the soil and enters living cells by osmosis.o Soils vary in their content of clay, silt, sand and gravel. The composition of soil determines the soil texture, porosity, water-retaining capacity and oxygen content.Soil contains a mixture of organic and inorganic nutrients (humus and minerals).o Climate includes environmental variables such as light, temperature, moisture, salinity and wind. These factors are important in determining the types of livingorganisms in the ecosystem.B. Energy flow and nutrient cycling in the ecosystemI) Transfer of energy (many approaches, according to functions in ecosystem)Food chainA linear sequence of organisms showing a pathway of food consumption from producers through a series of consumers. In this series, an organism feeds on the one before it and forms the food of the organism after it.Food chains are short (4-5 levels) because only 10 - 20 % of energy is transferred to the next stage.Each stage in food chain = _______________Trophic levels•The number of steps by which the organisms obtain their energy from plants in a food chain. --- the producers always at the first trophic level.Producers _______ consumers ______ consumers ______consumersdecomposersa) Producers : autotrophs自養-- photosynthetic e.g. green plant, photosynthetic bacteria,chemosynthetic bacteria e.g. nitrifying bacteria,base of food chain and food web.N.B. : Phytoplanktons, which are microorganisms, are important producers floating on the upper layers of lakes or ocean. They are unicellular organisms which alsocontain chloroplasts to carry out photosynthesis just like the terrestrial plants .b) Primary consumers : herbivores which feed on plants e.g. pond snails, insect larvae.c) Secondary consumers : carnivores which feed on primary consumers e.g. small fish.d) Tertiary consumers : larger carnivores which feed on secondary consumers e.g. large fishe) Decomposers : mainly ________________________,分解者decompose dead bodies of plants and animals into simpler compoundswhich can then be absorbed by green plants again,important in recycling of nutrients and clearing up dead bodies andexcretory remains.f) Detritivores : consume the losses from the food chain, or dead organic matter detached食腐質動物from dead bodies or excreta (detritus), movement of energy and matter in a continuous manner, therefore hard to define trophic level,mainly bacteria, fungi, protozoans, insects, mites and some small vertebrates,detritus detritivores carnivores and herbivoresImportances :⏹detritivores break down complex compounds to simpler molecules, therefore speeding updecomposition of dead bodies and excretory remains by breaking up detritus into small pieces thus increasing the surface area available for microbial action,⏹adding proteins and microorganisms onto the soil by their faecesg) other definition system :Producer herbivores carnivores top carnivores(prey) (prey/predator) (predator)Some animals may act as both herbivore and carnivore : omnivoreFood web- 2 or more interconnecting food chains, each organism may have different trophic levels營養層in different food chain within a food web.- examples of woodland and fresh water habitat (refer to any textbook)Example of food web : MarshII) Level of organizationArrange the following ecological terms in order :biosphere, community, population, organ, organism, biome, cellSpecies : ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________III) Ecological energeticsProduction : amount of materials which accumulate over a fixed amount of time.Top carnivoresCarnivoresdecomposersHerbivoresGreen plantsN.B. Much of the solar energy reaching the plant is lost by reflection and photosynthetic inefficiency.Useful terms :•Biological productivity生物生產力is the rate at which biomass is produced by an ecosystem. It has two components:o Primary productivity初級生產力, the production of new organic matter by green plants (autotrophs).o Secondary productivity次級生產力, the production of new organic matter by consumers (heterotrophs).•Both of these can be divided into gross primary productivity and net primary productivity.•Gross primary productivity (GPP) 總初級生產力o The total amount of orgainc matter produced by green plants in unit area and per unit time. GPP does not represent the actual amount of food potentially availableto heterotrophs because some of the organic matters are used to meet plant'srespiration and metabolism.•Net primary productivity (NPP) 淨初級生產力o The total amount of organic matter of the organism after respiration andmetabolism have been fueled. Therefore it represents the potential food energyavailable to heterotrophs.Net secondary productivity : ____________________________________________N.B. : Usually, plant has 10% average efficiency of energy transfer while animal has 20%, explain why ?IV) Pyramids1) Pyramid of number (abundance) 數目塔- a diagram representing the progressive drop in numbers of individuals at each successive trophic level, usually upright e.g.- sometimes may be inverted e.g.- Not a good representation : ___________________________________________2) Pyramid of biomass (unit :g/m2) 生物量塔- Biomass ? _____________________________________________________________- better idea about the quantity of materials in each trophic level required to support those level above it, total amount of organic matter is largest at the base of a food chain,- normal shape : upright,rare case : inverted, why ?Reason ---- producer level has rapid turnover rate e.g. phytoplanktons may have smaller biomass than true but have higher productivity, therefore in this case, harvestanimal is better than harvest producer,3) Pyramid of energy 能量塔(productivity) (Unit : g/m2/day, month, year)- the best because :a) it takes into account the rate of production, that is the time factor.b) no inverted pyramid --- always upright,c) importance of solar energy can be stressed.Criticism of all pyramids :- in a food web, many organisms cannot be placed in ONE suitable trophic level.- some still inverted, why ??Cycling of Nutrients in EcosystemsA. Carbon Cycle•Carbon is an essential building element for all organic compounds. The cyclic flow of carbon in Nature is known as the carbon cycle.o In Nature, the most abundant source of carbon exists as carbon dioxide free in the atmosphere and dissolve in oceans.o During photosynthesis, producers make use of light energy to convert carbon dioxide into organic carbon compounds in their bodieso When producers are eaten, the organic carbon compounds in their bodies are passed on to the consumers.o In the bodies of both producers and consumers, part of the organic carbon compounds is broken down into carbon dioxide during respiration and bringback to the atmosphere and oceans.o When the organisms die, a certain amount of organic carbon compounds is locked up in the dead bodies.o Generally the dead bodies undergo decomposition. The organic carboncompounds are converted to carbon dioxide and liberated during the respirationof decomposers.o Sometimes, the dead bodies may become fossil fuels. In such a case, the carbon dioxide can only be released when the fuels are burnt. The process is calledcombustion.Carbon CycleB. Nitrogen Cycle•Nitrogen is an essential element in the synthesis of proteins. The cyclic flow of nitrogen in Nature is known as the nitrogen.o During a process called nitrogen fixation, atmospheric nitrogen is changed to nitrates in the soil.This process is carried out by a group of bacteria callednitrogen-fixing bacteria.固氮細菌o During lightening閃電, a tmospheric nitrogen can also be changed to nitrates.o The nitrogen in the soil is absorbed by producers in ionic forms and converted to organic nitrogenous compounds in their body.o When producers are eaten, the organic nitrogenous compounds in their bodies are passed on to the consumers.o Some of the nitrogen in the consumers' bodies are lost as excretory products.o When the organisms die, a certain amount of organic nitrogen is locked up in the dead bodies.o The organic nitrogen in the excretory products and dead bodies is broken down into ammonium compounds by a group of bacteria called putrefying bacteria. Theprocess is called putrefaction. 腐敗作用o The ammonium compounds are changed stepwise to nitrates by nitrifying bacteria. The process is called nitrification.o A process called denitrification changes some of the inorganic nitrogencompounds in the soil changed to nitrogen gas by the so-called denitrifyingbacteria. The nitrogen gas is returned to the atmosphere.Nitrogen cycleReference : Chinese version of Carbon and Nitrogen cycle Carbon Cycle :Nitrogen Cycle :Interdependence of organismsBasic interaction types0 no reaction + positive influence : benefit - negativea) + 0 :b) + + :c) + - :d) + - :e) - - :A) Positive interactions1) Commensalism 片行共生Different species of organisms living together, with only one getting benefits while the other get no harm, e.g. the barnacles藤壺attach themselves to the shells of hermit crabs. They obtain nourishment from the food left by the crab after it has eaten, and the crab can help them escape from danger.2) Mutualism (symbiosis) 互利共生Different species living together that are beneficial to both, e.g. lichens which are the association of fungi and algae. The alga is protected from high light intensity and desiccation by the fungi. Moreover, the fungi are constantly supplied with organic food substances by the algae from photosynthesis.Other example : symbiotic bacteria and rabbits.B) Negative interaction1) Predation (+ -) :two individuals in which one preys on the other while the other is being eaten e.g. foxes and rabbits.N.B. predators regulating the prey population, i.e. Biological control, therefore benefically.2) Parasitism (+ -) :The parasite obtains food or shelter from the host. It can be further divided into ectoparasites, which live on the outer surface of a host, and endoparasites, which live within a host.e.g. tapeworm found in human digestive system obtain nourishment from the human host. N.B. the parasite must not kill the host or else it destroys itself.3) Competition (- -) :a) Interspecific or intraspecific :which one is more serious ? ________________________e.g. barnacles and oysters ---- compete for space and foodb) Two types :(Scramble爭奪) :(Contest) :c) Effects- on plant : changes in growth rate (competition for nutrients or light),extinction of less successful species,- on animal : i) aggression,ii) territory,iii) emigration,iv) increase in death rate,v) predation.d) Evolutionary significance :1) eliminate less well-adapted individuals, therefore gradual improvement of species,2) gives rise to adaptive radiationi.e. filling of more diverse ecological niches by an original species,therefore competition in field -- __________________________________________________________________________________________________3) success in competition depends on environmental conditions, conditions may favour one species at one time, and a different one at some other time, therefore different species may fluctuate in number.Succession 演替Succession is defined as a series of changes in the structure and composition of a community from the pioneer community to the climax community over a period of time.Primary succession :Invasion and colonization of bare rock, only algae and lichens can invadeand colonize the area(insufficient soil and nutrients for trees and shrubs) --first colonizers.by weatheringColonization by larger plant species such as mosses or fernsThe death and decomposition of these plants further enrich the soilColonization by seed-bearing plants, including grasses, shrubs and trees.Secondary succession :When the completely colonized surface has been influenced by living organisms (human) or environmental factors (fire), secondary succession occurs -- result in mesophytes dominantcauses of succession : changes in environment of a pondexisting communities no longer adaptednew species take overClimax community : 頂極群落The final stable and self-perpetuating community developed after number of successional communities, can resist environmental changes and competition, and it is the most productive community that the environment can sustain.Characteristics1) determined by habitat factors,2) interaction results in a stable balanced unit,3) a natural community : self sufficient and self-maintaining,4) species composition of a natural community is the result of natural selection.Adaptations of organisms to the environmenta) Definition :characteristic of an organism with definite value in allowing it to exist under condition of its habitats in order to ensure its continuity, allow the organism to make use of environmental resources or protect it against adverse conditions.b) Types of adaptation :a) morphological, b) physiological, c) behaviouralc) Significance of adaptation :- natural selection eliminates the one not adapted, therefore the adapted are favoured i.e.'survival of fittest',- ability of species to remain in existence depends on :i) ______________________________________________________________ii) ________________________________________________________________Examples of adaptationsReproductiona) Viviparous 胎生droppers of Kandelia水筆仔:- dominant in mangroves in H.K.,- seedlings (fruits) exhibit vivipary -- they develop while still attached to the parent plants, forming 'droppers' which fall into the water and float away, coming to rest in an upright position as the tide recedes,- therefore adapt to i) unstable substratum,ii) anaerobic mud,iii) saline condition.Survivala) Holdfast of Sargassum ( brown algae),- live on the intertidal zone of marine habitat,- develop a powerful holdfast which is a flattened disc capable of adhering strongly to almost any solid substratum.b) Shaped leaves of Pinus :- develop successfully as an evergreen plant in relatively poor, dry soil,- dark green 'needle' leaf with sunken stomata,- each has the shiny look associated with a thick cuticle and is grooved along its length,- small brown scale leaves for protection of buds and dwarfed shoot.Notes on field studiesEnvironment-the surroundings-i.e. the sum total of external influences acting on an organism or community.A) Abiotic (physical) :----- climaticsoil (edaphic)topographica) ClimaticTemperature :- biochemical processes : most life exist within 0 – 600C- physiological effects (breeding),- adaptations :i) behavioral -----ii) structural -----Rainfall :- need for many functions (germination, locomotion, transport, metabolism, osmoregulation), - presence or absence of water causes many adaptations :in plants :in animals :-governs distribution of tropical rain forest, temperate forest,-Light :- three factors : ___________________________________- photosynthesis : food production,flowering (photoperiodism), transpiration,behaviour;

An ecosystem is a community of organisms interacting with each other and with the non-living components of their environment, such as air, water, and soil. Ecosystems can vary greatly in size and complexity, ranging from small ponds or patches of forest to entire biomes such as deserts or tropical rainforests. Ecosystems are characterized by the flow of energy and the cycling of nutrients, and they are often interconnected in complex networks.Energy flows through ecosystems in the form of sunlight, which is captured by photosynthetic organisms such as plants and algae. These primary producers convert solar energy into chemical energy, which is then passed on to consumers such as herbivores, which eat the plants, and predators, which eat the herbivores. This flow of energy through the ecosystem forms a trophic pyramid, with energy decreasing as it moves up the food chain. At each trophic level, some energy is lost as heat, and not all of the energy consumed by an organism is converted into new biomass. This has important implications for the structure and dynamics of ecosystems.In addition to energy, ecosystems also require a constant input of nutrients to support the growth and reproduction of organisms. Nutrients such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus are cycled through the ecosystem, moving through the soil, water, and air and being taken up by plants and other organisms. Human activities can disrupt these nutrient cycles, leading to problems such as nutrient pollution and eutrophication, which can have harmful effects on water quality and the health of ecosystems.The diversity of species in an ecosystem is another key aspect of its structure and function. Biodiversity is the variety of life forms in a given area, and it includes not only the number of different species present, but also the genetic diversity within each species and the variety of ecosystems in a region. Biodiversity is important for the resilience and stability of ecosystems, as it provides a greater range of responses to environmental change and a greater diversity of ecological functions.Human activities have had a profound impact on the Earth's ecosystems, and understanding the effects of these activities is a major focus of ecological research. Human population growth, agricultural expansion, urbanization, industrialization, and climate change are all major drivers of ecosystem change. These changes can lead to habitat loss and fragmentation, species extinction, pollution, and the degradation of ecosystem services such as water purification and pollination. Ecologists study these impacts and work to develop strategies for mitigating their effects and promoting sustainable use of natural resources. Conservation biology is a subfield of ecology that focuses on the preservation and restoration of biodiversity. Conservation biologists study the factors threatening species and ecosystems, and they develop and implement strategies for protecting and managing natural areas. These strategies can include creating protected areas, restoring degradedhabitats, reintroducing species to their native habitats, and working with local communities to promote sustainable resource use.In addition to the ecological principles that govern the structure and function of ecosystems, there are also principles that guide the design and management of human-dominated landscapes. For example, the concept of sustainable agriculture seeks to minimize the environmental impact of food production by using practices that conserve soil and water, reduce the use of synthetic inputs such as pesticides and fertilizers, and promote biodiversity. Similarly, urban ecology is a field that studies the interactions between humans and the natural environment in cities, and it seeks to develop strategies for creating more sustainable and resilient urban environments.Overall, ecology is a broad and interdisciplinary field that encompasses a wide range of topics and approaches. It is a science that is essential for understanding the complex interactions between living organisms and their environment and for addressing the major environmental challenges facing the world today. By studying ecological principles, researchers and policymakers can work together to develop solutions for conserving biodiversity, managing natural resources, and creating a more sustainable future for all living things.。

Community structure
The species diversity of a community depends on the number of different species it contains (the species richness) and the evenness of species abundance across species. Diversity indices can be calculated to take into account both of these factors. Another way of representing species richness and evenness together is to plot the relative abundance of species against rank order of species abundance. Diversity can be measured over the three different spatial scales of the local community, the region and the broadest geographic scale (e.g. the continent). This yields alpha (α)-, beta (β)-and gamma (γ)-diversity.

Community complexity, diversity
and stability
There are tow components to stability – resilience and resistance, which describe the community’s ability to recover from disturbance and to resist change. Complexity is thought to be important in determining resilience and resistance, However, more complex communities are not necessarily the most stable; increased complexity has been shown to lead to instability. In addition, different components of the communities (e.g. species richness and biomass) may respond differently to disturbance. Communities with a low productivity (e.g. tundra) to be the least resilient. In contrast, weak competition permits coexistence among species and reduces community instability.

生态概论The Economy of Nature

The Economy of Nature 第一章绪论生态学系统可以小如生物个体，大如生物圈生态学家从不同的透视角度研究自然植物、动物和微生物在生态学系统中起不同的作用栖息地定义生物在自然中的位置；生态位定义其功能地位一切生态学系统及其过程都有特征性的时间和空间尺度生态学系统服从物理学和生物学一般原理生态学家通过观察和实验研究自然界人类是生物圈中重要的组成部分人类对于自然界的影响已上升为生态学研究的焦点总结1、生态学是研究自然环境和生物彼此之间及生物与其周围之间关系的科学。

2、生物个体、种群、群落、生态系统和生物圈代表了生态结构和功能的组织层次。

它们形成了逐步复杂实体的等级结构。

3、生态学从几个不同角度研究自然，其焦点集中于生物与环境的相互作用于，从而产生生态系统和生物圈中能量与化学元素转化、单个种群的动态、生态群落花流水中种群的相互作用。

4、不同种类的生物在生态系统中起不同作用。

植物和藻类固定日光能；动物和原生动物消费生物形式的能量；真菌能进入土壤和死植物，所以在降解生物物质和更新生态系统的营养物上起重要作用。

细菌是生化专家，完成氮的生物同化和以硫化氢作能源等的转化，这两者都是生态系统功能的基本成分。

5、一个个体的栖息地就是它生活的地方。

栖息地要领强调了环境的结构。

一个个体的生态位是它能够耐受的条件范围和它能够采取的生活方式——即它在自然系统中的功能结构。

6、生态学过程和结构具有空间和时间尺度特征。

模式和过程的尺度，在单间和空间上一般是相关的。

7、生态学系统的多样性和复杂性从少数基本生态学原理上可以理解。

在这些原理中，生态学系统是物质实体，并在物理和化学元素限制的能量转达化中起作用。

同时，所以生态学系统与其周围环境进行物质和能量交换。

当输入和输出相平衡时，系统处于动态稳定状态。

8、所有生态学系统都服从进货性变化，它是种群中个体戚和生死差异的结果；个体表现了遗传决定的不同特征。

作为自然选择的结果，生物表现出对环境中相适合条件的结构和功能的适应性。
