Journal Title：Theoretical Ecology

Theoretical Ecology publishes innovative research in theoretical ecology, broadly defined. Papers should use theoretical approaches to answer questions of ecological interest and appeal to and be readable by a broad audience of ecologists. Work that uses mathematical, statistical, computational, or conceptual approaches is all welcomed, provided that the goal is to increase ecological understanding. Papers that only use existing approaches to analyze data, or are only mathematical analyses that do not further ecological understanding, are not appropriate. Work that bridges disciplinary boundaries, such as the intersection between quantitative social sciences and ecology, or physical influences on ecological processes, will also be particularly welcome.

All areas of theoretical ecology, including ecophysiology, population ecology, behavioral ecology, evolutionary ecology, ecosystem ecology, community ecology, and ecosystem and landscape ecology are all appropriate. Theoretical papers that focus on applied ecological questions are also of particular interest.

《理論生態(tài)學》發(fā)表理論生態(tài)學（廣義）領(lǐng)域的創(chuàng)新研究。論文應(yīng)使用理論方法來回答生態(tài)學問題，并吸引廣大生態(tài)學家并讓其閱讀。使用數(shù)學、統(tǒng)計、計算或概念方法的論文都受到歡迎，前提是其目標是提高對生態(tài)學的理解。僅使用現(xiàn)有方法分析數(shù)據(jù)或僅進行數(shù)學分析而未進一步加深對生態(tài)學理解的論文不合適。跨越學科界限的論文（例如定量社會科學與生態(tài)學的交叉或?qū)ι鷳B(tài)過程的物理影響）也將受到特別歡迎。

理論生態(tài)學的所有領(lǐng)域，包括生態(tài)生理學、種群生態(tài)學、行為生態(tài)學、進化生態(tài)學、生態(tài)系統(tǒng)生態(tài)學、群落生態(tài)學以及生態(tài)系統(tǒng)和景觀生態(tài)學都是合適的。專注于應(yīng)用生態(tài)問題的理論論文也特別受關(guān)注。

Theoretical Ecology創(chuàng)刊于2008年，由Springer Netherlands出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋環(huán)境科學 - 生態(tài)學全領(lǐng)域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領(lǐng)域中專業(yè)影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質(zhì)量佳，選擇此期刊，發(fā)表機率較高。平均審稿速度 12周，或約稿 ，影響因子指數(shù)1.2，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
