OverviewEcology is the study of how different organisms interact with one another and their environments, as well as with other species and conspecifics. Even though ecology first emerged in the nineteenth century, the majority of its theoretical framework only emerged in the twentieth. Although there are numerous subfields within ecology, philosophical analysis of ecology has primarily focused on population, community, and ecosystem ecology. Explanations of relevant concepts like ecological diversity and stability, as well as the connection between diversity and stability, are central philosophical issues. The nature of ecology's laws and theories, model-building strategies, and reductionism are additional topics of discussion. Increased computational power is causing a conceptual shift in contemporary ecology. Reductionism in ecology should be seen as returning with the recent emphasis on individual-based models that embrace methodological individualism. Geographical Information Systems and the widespread interest in spatially explicit models are two additional significant developments.
