Ecology is the study of organism-environment interactions. In the an age of significant human impact on ecosystems, this matters more than ever.

We are in the midst of a major phase of species extinction on Earth, but we have yet to describe 90% of all species.

The consequences of global environmental change are unknown. This includes species loss in ecosystems that support all life and sustain society.

Our work arises from such profound questions of sustainability. It's rooted in international policy frameworks (e.g. UN SDG, IPBES). It seeks to understand, mitigate and prevent loss of biological and genetic diversity.

Examples include:

• working towards effective protected area networks and mitigation of anthropogenic mortalities (e.g. fisheries bycatch)
• developing sustainable agro-ecosystems
• examining the loss of ecological functions (such as pollinators, top predators, fisheries, coastal protection and amenity values)
• understanding the consequences of environmental change on the resilience of ecological networks
• how natural environmental systems can, or should be, valued
• how recent leaps in technology (e.g. DNA-metabarcoding) can assist analysis, monitoring, restoration and conservation of the natural environment

Our group conducts ecological and evolutionary research. We do this to understand and predict the rate of ecosystem change. We seek to underpin sustainable management and policy.

We work across the spectrum, from fundamental ecological science to application and translation into management and policy.

Mark Whittingham leads the group, supported by deputies Nick Polunin and Sara Marsham.

The group make decisions in a consultative way. We encourage group members (at every level) to take part in decision making. They vote on key decisions and contribute to group strategy.
