About the journal
Aims and Scope |
Ecography is a journal issued by the Nordic Ecological Society OIKOS, representing ecologists in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. Ecologists from all countries are invited to publish original results on its pages.
Ecography publishes papers centred towards pattern and diversity in ecology, which includes studies in biodiversity, biogeography, ecological conservation and natural history of species. Studies in landscape ecology, and gene ecology are welcome together with palaeoecological and quaternary ecological studies explaining present ecological patterns. There is no bias as regards taxon, biome, or biogeographical area.
Forum is intended for short notes on new ideas or new or different ways of evaluating existing information. Comments, viewpoints or suggestions arising from earlier published papers as well as notes on methodology are welcome.
Ecography is published in close co-operation with OIKOS. OIKOS publishes theoretical and empirical work in all areas of ecology, where theoretical papers should more than elaborate on previously published analyses, and empirical studies should test explicit hypotheses and/or theoretical predictions.
Ecography is sponsored by the Nordic Publishing Board in Science (NOP-N). Ecography is published in co-operation with Intecol, the journals Oikos, Lindbergia, Nordic Journal of Botany, Journal of Avian Biology, and the monograph series Ecological Bulletins. Manuscripts may be transferred between these journals according to journals profile.
