Global Ecology and Biogeography

Global Ecology and Biogeography (GEB) welcomes papers that investigate broad-scale (in space, time and/or taxonomy), general patterns in the organization of ecological systems and assemblages, and the processes that underlie them. In particular, GEB welcomes studies that use macroecological methods, comparative analyses, meta-analyses, reviews, spatial analyses and modelling to arrive at general, conceptual conclusions. Studies in GEB need not be global in spatial extent, but the conclusions and implications of the study must be relevant to ecologists and biogeographers globally, rather than being limited to local areas, or specific taxa. Similarly, GEB is not limited to spatial studies; we are equally interested in the general patterns of nature through time, among taxa (e.g., body sizes, dispersal abilities), through the course of evolution, etc. Further, GEB welcomes papers that investigate general impacts of human activities on ecological systems in accordance with the above criteria.

《Global Ecology and Biogeography》（GEB）的出版商是Wiley-Blackwell出版社，季刊，每年出版4期，创刊于1992年。它欢迎研究大范围（空间、时间和/或分类学）、生态系统和组合组织的一般模式及其背后过程的论文。 GEB 特别欢迎使用宏观生态学方法、比较分析、荟萃分析、评论、空间分析和建模来得出一般性概念性结论的研究。 GEB的研究在空间范围上不必是全球性的，但研究的结论和意义必须与全球生态学家和生物地理学家相关，而不是仅限于局部区域或特定类群。 同样，GEB 不仅限于空间研究； 该期刊同样对自然随着时间、类群（例如体型大小、分散能力）、进化过程等的一般模式感兴趣。此外，GEB 欢迎根据上述标准研究人类活动对生态系统的一般影响的论文。
