One of the oldest observations in ecology is that biodiversity (e.g., the number of different species) varies enormously from place to place. Human activities very frequently affect diversity. Consequently it would be very useful to identify the processes that control diversity, and to show how human activities influence these.

生态学中最古老的观察之一是生物多样性（例如，不同物种的数量）因地而异。人类活动经常影响生物多样性。因此，确定控制多样性的过程，并表明人类活动如何影响这些过程，将是非常有用的。
