Mathematics and quantitave modelling underpin many aspects of modern ecology. Mathematical models are used to develop and define the basic theory of ecology. Simulation models are being increasingly used for environmental management.
The Ecology Centre believes modelling skills are an essential part of research and management in the environment.
