Professor Levins, one of the leading explorers in the field of
integrated population biology, considers the mutual
interpenetration and joint evolution of organism and environment,
occurring on several levels at once. Physiological and behavioral
adaptations to short-term fluctuations of the environment condition
the responses of populations to long-term changes and geographic
gradients. These in turn affect the way species divide the
environments among themselves in communities, and, therefore, the
numbers of species which can coexist. Environment is treated here
abstractly as pattern: patchiness, variability, range, etc.
Populations are studied in their patterns: local heterogeneity,
geographic variability, faunistic diversity, etc.
