Species dynamics is a field of research that focuses on the interactions between different species within an ecosystem and how these interactions change over time. This research area examines the population dynamics, ecological interactions, and evolutionary processes that influence the distribution and abundance of species within an ecosystem. By studying species dynamics, researchers can better understand the complex relationships between organisms and their environments, and how these relationships contribute to the overall functioning of ecosystems. This research is crucial for conservation efforts, as it helps us predict how species will respond to environmental changes and human impacts.
