Understanding how living organisms respond and adapt to environmental changes remains a major and urgent scientific challenge. CEES combines a broad spectrum of disciplines – such as population biology, statistical and mathematical modelling, and genomics – to foster the concept of ecology as a driving force of evolution via selective processes, with a corresponding influence of evolutionary changes on ecology.

After a collapse: long-term effects of biomass reduction
The worldwide human footprint is increasingly evident. Over the decades, many species have collapsed or are collapsing with only some recovering. A key question is what happens to these populations after the collapse. In a study published in Scientific Reports (Durant et al 2024), we test whether the effect on fish populations from overfishing, climate, and survival of young fish remains the same after a collapse.
