An ecological edge, or edge habitat, refers to the transitional zone between two different ecosystems or habitats, such as where a forest meets a meadow or a river. These edges often exhibit unique environmental conditions and higher biodiversity compared to the adjacent habitats, providing resources and opportunities for various species. Edge effects can influence species interactions, microclimates, and the distribution of plants and animals, making them important areas for ecological study and conservation. However, human activities can disrupt these edges, leading to habitat fragmentation and loss of biodiversity.
Habitat fragmentation is the breaking up of a continuous habitat into smaller, isolated patches. Edge effect occurs at the boundaries between different habitats, where ecological conditions are often different from those in the interior of the habitat. Habitat fragmentation increases edge effect, exposing species to more edge conditions and potentially altering ecosystem dynamics and species interactions.

The ecological species concept defines a species based on its ecological niche, focusing on how a group of organisms interacts with their environment, including their resources, habitat, and interactions with other species. This concept emphasizes the role of natural selection in shaping species' adaptations to specific ecological roles. Unlike other species concepts that may rely on morphological or genetic criteria, the ecological species concept underscores the importance of ecological dynamics in defining what constitutes a species.

Ecological is a adjective, not a verb
ecological, green
Ecological backlash
The difference between ecological succession from ecological backlash. Ecological Succession is the predictable changes in the ecosystem. Ecological Backlash is the unexpected and detriminal consequences of an enviromental modification which may outweigh that gains anticipated form the modification. THANK U
