Abstract (EN): We investigate the wide scope of systems within Earth's biosphere and the ecological changes shaping life on Earth. We look at how ecology helps us make sense of the past, understand the present, and investigate the possible outcomes of the future. We focus on to signs that Earth's ecosystem is possible in decline - climate change and habitat change.
