Ecological Monographs

Journal Title：Ecological Monographs

The vision for Ecological Monographs is that it should be the place for publishing integrative, synthetic papers that elaborate new directions for the field of ecology.

Original Research Papers published in Ecological Monographs will continue to document complex observational, experimental, or theoretical studies that by their very integrated nature defy dissolution into shorter publications focused on a single topic or message.

Reviews will be comprehensive and synthetic papers that establish new benchmarks in the field, define directions for future research, contribute to fundamental understanding of ecological principles, and derive principles for ecological management in its broadest sense (including, but not limited to: conservation, mitigation, restoration, and pro-active protection of the environment). Reviews should reflect the full development of a topic and encompass relevant natural history, observational and experimental data, analyses, models, and theory. Reviews published in Ecological Monographs should further blur the boundaries between “basic” and “applied” ecology.

Concepts and Synthesis papers will conceptually advance the field of ecology. These papers are expected to go well beyond works being reviewed and include discussion of new directions, new syntheses, and resolutions of old questions.

In this world of rapid scientific advancement and never-ending environmental change, there needs to be room for the thoughtful integration of scientific ideas, data, and concepts that feeds the mind and guides the development of the maturing science of ecology. Ecological Monographs provides that room, with an expansive view to a sustainable future.

生态专着的愿景是，它应该成为发表综合性综合论文的地方，这些论文阐述了生态学领域的新方向。

在生态专着中发表的原始研究论文将继续记录复杂的观察性、实验性或理论性研究，这些研究由于其高度整合的性质而无法分解为专注于单一主题或信息的较短出版物。

综述将是综合综合论文，在该领域建立新的基准，确定未来研究的方向，有助于对生态原理的基本理解，并从最广泛的意义上推导出生态管理原理（包括但不限于：保护、缓解、恢复和主动保护环境）。评论应反映主题的全面发展，并包含相关的自然历史、观察和实验数据、分析、模型和理论。发表在生态专着中的评论应该进一步模糊“基础”和“应用”生态之间的界限。

Concepts and Synthesis 论文将在概念上推动生态学领域的发展。这些论文预计将远远超出正在审查的工作范围，包括对新方向、新综合和旧问题解决方案的讨论。

在这个科学快速进步和永无止境的环境变化的世界中，需要有空间将科学思想、数据和概念进行深思熟虑的整合，以滋养思想并指导成熟的生态科学的发展。 Ecological Monographs 提供了这样的空间，对可持续发展的未来有广阔的视野。
