Fitness costs of reproduction are expected when resources are limited. This can drive the evolution of life‐history strategies and can affect population dynamics, particularly if females change their allocation of […]
In the biologging Special Issue of the journal, we have new Review paper lead by Rocío Joo on Navigating through the r packages for movement. Rocío is a movement statistician […]
In the biologging Special Issue of the journal, we have new ‘How to…’ paper lead by Simeon Lisovski from the Swiss Ornithological Institute on Light‐Level Geolocator Analyses. In this blog […]
The BES journals require authors to include an ORCID iD when submitting a manuscript. ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier (an ORCID iD) that you own and control, that distinguishes […]
Biogeography is often more complicated than the species-area relationship as discussed in a Journal of Animal Ecology paper testing multiple extensions of island biogeography theory. Sam Ross, lead author of […]
Podcasts about Journal of Animal Ecology papers scripted and recorded by undergrads.
This blog post is provided by Fleur Ponton, Senior Lecturer in Insect Biology at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia. Fleur and her team are investigating the relationship between nutrition, immunology […]
Coming to the BES Annual Meeting? Planning to submit a paper to a BES journal? Then you should sign up for the Speed Review Session on Thursday 12 December! (sign-up […]
Ecological projects involving citizen scientists have rapidly increased in number and there is now a general consensus that they can produce high-quality data. Citizen science projects generate large datasets that […]
In this video Executive Editor Ken Wilson discusses what he is looking for from a great paper for Journal of Animal Ecology. The message from Ken is that papers must […]
Infectious diseases are ubiquitous and account for some of the most dramatic impacts in human history. They are, however, equally prevalent and important to wild animals and plants, potentially being […]
The journal is pleased to welcome Lesley Lancaster and Darren Evens to the Senior Editor board of Journal of Animal Ecology. Lesley is no stranger to Journal of Animal Ecology, having […]
What do you remember of the first paper you published? My first first-authored paper was ‘Adaptive social and maternal induction of antipredator dorsal patterns in a lizard with alternative social […]
What do you remember of the first paper you published? I was an undergraduate working on my final year dissertation examining the impacts of recreational disturbance on wintering wildfowl. My […]
This blog post is provided by the Acoustic & Functional Ecology Group at the Max Plank Institute for Ornithology and describes a bat tour to the local lake and how […]
In the latest issue of the journal we have a new ‘How to…’ paper lead by Nick Fountain‐Jones from the University of Tasmania on How to make more from exposure […]
Behavioural plasticity is an important concept in ecology and evolution. The term has been applied to a broad range of biological phenomena, from developmental changes occurring in a canalized fashion […]

We are pleased to welcome Rob Salguero-Gómez, University of Oxford, Hannah White, University Colluge Dublin and Elise Zipkin, Michigan State University to the Journal of Aniamal Ecology Associate Editor Board. […]
Identifying the factors shaping variation in parasite diversity among host species is crucial to understand wildlife diseases. A recent paper in Journal of Animal Ecology investigated the role of host […]
Plants exhibit impressive genetic and chemical diversity, and this variation is important for structuring ecological communities. A recent paper in the Journal of Animal Ecology investigated this with regard to […]
