The CollageMachine interactive artifact and the interface ecology theoretical framework are being codeveloped, through back and forth loops of reference on multiple levels. The open conceptual space of interface ecology enables the formation of cross-disciplinary connections that range beyond the confines of individual disciplines. CollageMachine has been created in this conceptual framework. I...
Human societies, and their well-being, depend to a significant extent on the state of the ecosystems that surround them. These ecosystems are changing rapidly usually in response to anthropogenic changes in the environment. To determine the likely impact of environmental change on ecosystems and the best ways to manage them, it would be desirable to be able to predict their future states. We pr...
Uncertainty is pervasive in ecology where the difficulties of dealing with sources of uncertainty are exacerbated by variation in the system itself. Attempts at classifying uncertainty in ecology have, for the most part, focused exclusively on epistemic uncertainty. In this paper we classify uncertainty into two main categories: epistemic uncertainty (uncertainty in determinate facts) and lingu...
This paper is based upon a Keynote presentation at CAL07 and extends previous introductory descriptions of the Ecology of Resources model of educational contexts. The relationships between the elements in the Ecology of Resources are a particular focus for discussion here. In particular, we consider how we might use the Ecology of Resources model to scaffold learning so that a wide range of the...
Landscape ecology offers a spatially explicit perspective on the relationships between ecological patterns and processes that can be applied across a range of scales. Concepts derived from landscape ecology now permeate ecological research across most levels of ecological organization and many scales. Landscape ecology developed rapidly after ideas that originated in Europe were introduced to s...
Ecology is the study of living organisms and their environment in an attempt to explain and predict. While natural history involves the accumulation of detailed data with emphasis on the autecology of each species, the objectives of ecology in general and of functional ecology in particular are to develop predictive theories and to assemble the data to develop general models. Functional ecology...
The issue of atmospheric air pollution in the Arctic is of global nature and concerns the entire humanity. The fragile nature of high latitudes is extremely vulnerable to human impacts. The negative effects are caused not only by plants and factories located in the northern latitudes but also by far away plants in Central Europe, America, and Asia. As a result, pollutants migrating to the Arcti...
Geographically peripheral populations of widespread species are often the focus of conservation because they are locally rare within political jurisdictions. Yet the ecology and genetics of these populations are rarely evaluated in a broader geographic context. Most expectations concerning the ecology and evolution of peripheral populations derive from the abundant-center model, which predicts ...
The edited collection Grounding Urban Natures is a significant addition to the growing literature on different aspects of urban environmental change. Henrik Ernstson and Sverker Sörlin have curated fascinating range essays that will serve as vital entry point into series intersecting debates concerning ecology, political ecology […]
The absolute light sensitivities, temporal properties, and spectral sensitivities of the visual systems of three mid-Atlantic temperate reef fishes (Atlantic spadefish [Ephippidae: Chaetodipterus faber], tautog [Labridae: Tautoga onitis], and black sea bass [Serranidae: Centropristis striata]) were studied via electroretinography (ERG). Pelagic Atlantic spadefish exhibited higher temporal resol...
