Theoretical population ecology

Theoretical population ecology studies how populations of organisms grow, interact, and change over time using mathematical models and scientific principles. It helps us understand factors like birth rates, death rates, resources, and competition that influence population size and structure. Researchers use this knowledge to predict future trends, manage wildlife, conserve endangered species, or control pests. By analyzing patterns and relationships, theoretical ecology provides insights into the dynamics of living communities, enabling better decision-making for environmental and conservation efforts.
