这在很大程度上是我对生态学中一些最重要的未解答问题的个人看法。也就是说,我预计这些问题将成为下个世纪研究议程的重点。该列表按层次结构组织,从个体群体层面的问题开始,并通过相互作用的群体逐步发展到整个社区或生态系统。我将尝试猜测基础知识和潜在应用方面可能取得的进展。这种对未来的看法唯一可以确定的是,其中大部分肯定会被证明是错误的,而且许多最有趣的未来发展将是无法预见的。
This is very much a personal view of what I think are some of the most important unanswered questions in ecology. That is, these are the questions that I expect will be high on the research agenda over the coming century. The list is organized hierarchically, beginning with questions at the level of individual populations, and progressing through interacting populations to entire communities or ecosystems. I will try to guess both at possible advances in basic knowledge and at potential applications. The only thing that is certain about this view of the future is that much of it will surely turn out to be wrong, and many of the most interesting future developments will be quite unforeseen.
