Overview
The Paleoecology Section is a
subdivision of the Ecological Society of America , and is governed by the
Constitution and Bylaws of that Society.
The Paleoecology Section
strives to promote, coordinate, and otherwise assist research in all
branches of theoretical and applied ecology that uses paleoecological
methods or historical documentary sources to gain insight into long-term
ecosystem dynamics; and to help disseminate the knowledge gained through
this research to investigators in other scientific disciplines, to other
learned societies, and to the general public.
Members of the
Ecological Society of America can join the Paleoecology Section by payment
of US$3.00 section membership dues at the time of your ESA membership
renewal. If your ESA membership has been renewed and you would like to
join the Paleoecology during the current year, please contact the ESA
Membership Coordinator. Section dues are used to defray the costs of a
business meeting at the ESA Annual Meeting, and to further the goals of
the Paleoecology Section by sponsoring theme symposia and the Edward S.
Deevey Award for Student Excellence in Paleoecology.
