Virtual Issue on Wildlife Disease Ecology
Edited by Ken Wilson and Mike Boots
NOVEMBER 2010
For almost eighty years, Journal of Animal Ecology has been publishing papers on the diseases of wild animals – the first was a short note published in Volume 1 of the journal back in 1932 by A.D. Middleton called: “Syphilis as a disease of wild rabbits and hares”! In Issue 1, January 2011, we publish an invited review of wildlife disease ecology by Tompkins et al., and to coincide with this we have compiled a virtual issue of some of the exciting papers published in this field in our journal.

Celebrating Darwin: evolutionary biology in the Journal of Animal Ecology

Edited by Tim Coulson
January 2009
The Journal of Animal Ecology has a long tradition of publishing research in evolutionary ecology. Over the years papers published in the journal have provided many key insights into the modus operandi of evolution in animal species. To celebrate the bi-centenary of Darwin's birth we have compiled a virtual issue of some of the exciting works showing the links between ecology and evolution and which have made a major impact on the way we think.

Biotelemetry and biologging

Edited by Professor Graeme Hays
November 2008
Small reliable transmitters and data-loggers can now be attached to animals for long periods. This virtual issue of Journal of Animal Ecology brings together recent material published in the journal on the applications of biotelemetry and biologging to a broad range of ecological questions and covers terrestrial, marine and aerial species. Amazing data-sets are coming out of field studies and we cover the developments in data-analysis that are at the vanguard of efforts to make the most of such information, as well as the ecological applications of both established and state-of-the-art devices.
Graeme Hays, Exec Editor, Journal of Animal Ecology
