Ecological interactions refer to the relationships and interactions between different organisms within an ecosystem. These interactions can include competition, predation, mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism. Studying ecological interactions is important for understanding how these relationships impact the structure and function of ecosystems, as well as how they influence population dynamics, behavior, and evolution of species. Researchers in this area often use field observations, experiments, and mathematical models to study the complex and interconnected web of interactions that occur in natural ecosystems.
