What Is Landscape Ecology?Landscape ecology is about people, ecosystems, species, energy, pollutants, GIS and remote sensing, modeling, disturbance, flows, conservation, and many many other things. What distinguishes landscape ecology from other areas of ecological and conservation science is the explicit link between spatial pattern and spatial processes. Landscape ecologists are fundamentally interested in what shapes landscape patterns and how these patterns influence various ecological processes. There are textbooks and journal papers that provide excellent technical definitions of what the science of landscape ecology is all about. Textbook definitions don’t always capture the passion, the people, and the excitement of the discipline. These pages introduce you to the US Regional Association of the International Association of Landscape Ecologists. By browsing these pages, you can find out who we are, and what we do, both as an association and as researchers. Our member fees are very reasonable, please consider joining us!
