Macroecology is the subfield of ecology which deals with the study of relationships between organisms and their environment at large spatial scales to characterise and explain statistical patterns of abundance, distribution and diversity.

Ecology is the study how organisms interact with each other and their physical environment. These interactions are often quite complex. Human activity frequently disturbs living systems and affects these interactions.
Ecology studies the distribution and abundance of living organisms, and the interactions between organisms and their environment.

Landscape Ecology
Boundary: the line or zone formed by the edges of two adjacent ecosystems. Corridor: a linear strip of habitat type that differs from that on either side of it.
I started doing ecology for a variety of reasons. I was interested in nature, as well as interested in mathematics, and I saw a chance to sort of use mathematical and experimental approaches to answer questions that I thought were interesting.

coli looks like as it is wiped out by T4 bacteriophage. You can also view this in an 800K time-lapse movie. For more on viruses that infect bacteria, visit the Bacteriophage Ecology Group and see their collection of phage images from around the Web.
Most notably, a number of scientists around the world made contributions to the field of microbial ecology, showing that bacteria were essential to food webs and for the overall health of the Earth's ecosystems.
