The phrase "adaptive ecological" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing environmental science, ecology, or sustainability, particularly when referring to systems or practices that adjust to changing ecological conditions.
Example: "The researchers focused on developing adaptive ecological strategies to enhance biodiversity in urban areas."
Alternatives: "flexible ecological" or "responsive ecological".
Theoretical modelling suggests that the mechanism by which adaptive ecologically-based sexual dimorphism emerges may be the same as that driving adaptive ecological speciation or phenotypic plasticity [ 10- 19, 19, 20].
These complex subsistence strategies appear to be part of the adaptive ecological plasticity of our species that enabled it to inhabit diverse Late Pleistocene habitats across the world1.
This paper presents a neural networks simulation of two complex adaptive ecological systems with a discrete time delay.
This IGERT program seeks to address the growing challenges of urbanization through a PhD program that integrates architecture, engineering and planning perspectives to focus on adaptive, ecological and resilient urban planning and design.
The Great Swamp Effluent Management System is an example of adaptive ecological engineering, protecting downstream recreational and shellfish waters by creating a productive interface between reclaimed wastewaters and natural wetlands.
Optimization of the above adaptive ecological and morphological traits together with evidence from our molecular dating of speciation events, suggests both an ancestral state of riverine species and the later originations of the lacustrine species of this clade.
You can calibrate a tree against geological time and the dates of fossils; you can make the branches thinner or thicker to depict their diversities; and you can artistically elongate some branches to suggest temporal, adaptive or ecological differences.
First, as conservation units such as evolutionarily significant units (ESUs) are often defined as a population or group of populations possessing both demographic isolation and adaptive or ecological significance (Waples 1995; Fraser and Bernatchez 2001), examinations of genomic regions associated with adaptation can directly inform ESU designation (Funk et al. 2012).
It therefore provides empirical support for social-ecological innovation as a valid ingredient contributing to resilience in adaptive social-ecological systems.
Rev. Environ Res. 30, 441 473 (2005).Reviews current understanding of social, organizational and institutional dimensions of adaptive social-ecological systems.
The paper concludes by confirming Forest Commons as robust and adaptive social-ecological systems and thus useful in Community Forestry conceptualisation.
