期刊簡介預計審稿時間： 12周，或約稿

Marine Ecology publishes original contributions on the structure and dynamics of marine benthic and pelagic ecosystems, communities and populations, and on the critical links between ecology and the evolution of marine organisms.

The journal prioritizes contributions elucidating fundamental aspects of species interaction and adaptation to the environment through integration of information from various organizational levels (molecules to ecosystems) and different disciplines (molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, physiology, marine biology, natural history, geography, oceanography, palaeontology and modelling) as viewed from an ecological perspective. The journal also focuses on population genetic processes, evolution of life histories, morphological traits and behaviour, historical ecology and biogeography, macro-ecology and seascape ecology, palaeo-ecological reconstruction, and ecological changes due to introduction of new biota, human pressure or environmental change.

Most applied marine science, including fisheries biology, aquaculture, natural-products chemistry, toxicology, and local pollution studies lie outside the scope of the journal. Papers should address ecological questions that would be of interest to a worldwide readership of ecologists; papers of mostly local interest, including descriptions of flora and fauna, taxonomic descriptions, and range extensions will not be considered.

《海洋生態學》發表關于海洋底棲和遠洋生態系統、群落和種群的結構和動態，以及生態學與海洋生物進化之間的關鍵聯系的原創性文章。

該期刊優先發表從生態學角度闡明物種相互作用和適應環境的基本方面的文章，這些文章通過整合來自不同組織層面（從分子到生態系統）和不同學科（分子生物學、遺傳學、生物化學、生理學、海洋生物學、自然歷史、地理學、海洋學、古生物學和建模）的信息來闡述。該期刊還關注種群遺傳過程、生命史的進化、形態特征和行為、歷史生態學和生物地理學、宏觀生態學和海景生態學、古生態重建以及由于引入新生物群、人類壓力或環境變化而導致的生態變化。

大多數應用海洋科學，包括漁業生物學、水產養殖、天然產物化學、毒理學和當地污染研究，不屬于該期刊的討論范圍。論文應解決全球生態學家讀者感興趣的生態問題；主要關注當地問題的論文，包括動植物描述、分類學描述和范圍擴展，將不予考慮。
