Ecosemiotics

Ecosemiotics is the study of how living beings communicate and create meaning within their environments. It combines ecology and semiotics, the science of signs and symbols, to explore how organisms, including humans, interpret and respond to their surroundings. This field examines interactions between species, their ecosystems, and the signs they produce or use for survival, such as signals for mating, warning of danger, or marking territory. Ultimately, ecosemiotics helps us understand the complex web of relationships and meanings that shape life on Earth.
