Scope
Populations can exhibit complex dynamics as a function of interactions between individuals and the biotic and abiotic components of their environment. Population ecology is supported by an understanding of physiological, behavioral, and evolutionary processes, with population dynamics being a core ingredient in community ecology and conservation biology. This Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution section addresses all aspects of population dynamics, with emphasis on species interactions, organism-environment relationships, how novel selection pressures change population dynamics, the roles of plasticity and adaptation in population resilience, limiting and regulating factors, numerical cycles and stability, and demographic processes. Submissions comprised of theoretical, mathematical, empirical, or synthetic investigations are welcome, and those including multiple facets are especially sought. Consideration is also given to research demonstrating an integrative approach, such as addressing the ultimate causes of population change or the implications of such change on conservation or management interventions. These are some of the broad, albeit critically-important topics that are covered in this section. It follows that this section aims to be a premier host for fundamental and applied research highlighting the rich and fascinating beauty and relevance of population and evolutionary dynamics.

PMCID: coming soon for all published articles
Population and Evolutionary Dynamics welcomes submissions of the following article types: Brief Research Report, Correction, Data Report, Editorial, General Commentary, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Policy and Practice Reviews, Review, Specialty Grand Challenge, Systematic Review and Technology and Code.
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.
