Scope
Populations evolve on time scales that matter to ecology. And ecology provides the context for natural selection. Fitness and population growth are intimately related. This section addresses population and evolutionary change, but is particularly interested in contributions that address the tight interplay between population and evolutionary dynamics. How do populations and traits change in space and time? How does the existence of heritable trait variation change our understanding of individuals, populations, communities, ecosystems? How do novel selection pressures change population dynamics? What are the roles of plasticity and adaptation in population resilience? These are just some of the broad questions that belong in this section. They are broad questions, but they are important. Not only for the insights that can be gleaned, but also for the applications that can result. Population and evolutionary dynamics have clear import in problems ranging across areas as diverse as conservation, agriculture, and health. This section welcomes all contributions that advance, synthesize, or apply our understanding of population and evolutionary dynamics.

PMCID: coming soon for all published articles
Population and Evolutionary Dynamics welcomes submissions of the following article types: Book Review, Brief Research Report, Correction, Data Report, Editorial, General Commentary, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Policy and Practice Reviews, Protocols, Review, Specialty Grand Challenge, Systematic Review and Technology Report.
All manuscripts must be submitted directly to the section Population and Evolutionary Dynamics, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty section.
Articles published in the section Population and Evolutionary Dynamics will benefit from the Frontiers impact and tiering system after online publication. Authors of published original research with the highest impact, as judged democratically by the readers, will be invited by the Chief Editor to write a Frontiers Focused Review - a tier-climbing article. This is referred to as "democratic tiering". The author selection is based on article impact analytics of original research published in all Frontiers specialty journals and sections. Focused Reviews are centered on the original discovery, place it into a broader context, and aim to address the wider community across all of Ecology and Evolution.
