100 years of ecology: what are our concepts and are they useful by Reiners, William A., Lockwood, Jeffrey A., Reiners, Derek S., Prager, Steven D.

“…Of these, 89% were addressed in North America, 62% were male, 77% held Ph.D. degrees, 67% were involved in academia through employment or as students, and about one‐half of the total were divided between community and ecosystem ecology domains of interest. The 10 highest ranked concepts (in descending order) for utility were scales (small, local, regional, global, etc.), ecosystem, habitat, species, disturbance/perturbation, organism, population, community, competition, and species life history. …”

Agriculture Systems by Andren, O., Katterer, T

“…In spite of this, belowground biodiversity can be high, although often lower than in natural ecosystems. Ecological research performed in agricultural systems has advantages compared with research in most natural ecosystems, since agricultural fields are ‘homogenized’, that is, trees, larger stones, etc. are removed and regular soil cultivation to some extent evens out differences in topsoil properties over time.…”
