Climate Change Ecology

Aims & Scope

The journal Climate Change Ecology is an Open Access journal for terrestrial, marine, and freshwater ecological research looking at ecosystem adaptations or responses to anthropogenic climate change.

Increasingly climate research is focused on the complexity of processes and responses across trophic webs and networks, highlighting how individual species' response to climate change effects its ecological system.

As modeling has grown increasingly sophisticated, data from multiple actors in ecological networks leads to a fuller picture of the nonlinear dynamics of ecosystem processes and also to a clearer understanding of predictive challenges.

The scope of the journal will include issues like range shifts/invasions, novel ecological communities, ecophysiology (drought, wildfires, etc) and phenology (migration, reproduction, and asynchronicity), and a wide range of methodological approaches to describing spatial and temporal complexity will be encouraged.

Climate Change Ecology will promote a holistic view of understanding ecological responses to a rapidly changing world.

Paper Types will include Research Articles, Review Articles, Perspectives, Case Studies/Short Communications, and Policy Analysis.
