New Editor | Arnost Sizling, subject editor for Ecography
We welcome Arnost Sizling to Ecography!
About our new subject editor:
I am a macroecologist at Charles University in Prague, where my research explores the fundamental drivers of species spatial patterns. My work focuses on the synthesis of macroecological patterns, including species-area relationship, species abundance distribution, decays in community similarity, and range extents along environmental gradients, with a specific interest in biodiversity indices, possible underlying mechanisms, and invariances.
Bridging my background in Physics (MSc) and Ecology (PhD), I focus on a geometric approach to ecological modelling, as species distribution maps and observed variable plots must adhere to geometric principles. I am particularly interested in how these biodiversity patterns shift across the Holocene and along continental-scale gradients.
Ecography—who are we?
ECOGRAPHY: A Journal of Space and Time in Ecology is an Open Access journal owned by the Nordic Society Oikos.
Our journal strives to understand ecological or biodiversity patterns through space and time. We encourage papers to advance the field of macroecology and biogeography through the development and testing of theory or modern methodology (remote sensing, molecular techniques, AI) or by proposing new tools for analysis or interpretation of ecological phenomena. There are no biases with regard to taxon, biome, or biogeographical area.
Thinking about publishing with us?
Ecography offers an annual E4 Award for early-career researchers
We value ethical standards in science (EDI, Open Access, waivers, accessible data and code, CRediT)

Our journals, our society—join us!
The Nordic Society Oikos engages the global scientific community through five international journals…
…and supports the national ecological societies of the five Nordic countries. Anyone worldwide can join the Nordic Society Oikos.
NSO is a home for ecologists, a nexus for knowledge, and a guiding light for ecology worldwide. We are an active network of ecologists in the Nordic region and around the globe.
Why join NSO? Membership benefits include:
Connections across a global community of ecologists and five national societies
NSO newsletters with member-only updates about Nordic ecology and society activities
Ongoing opportunities for promotion on NSO’s digital platforms and social media channels
Discounted registration for NSO’s biennial conference
Eligibility to apply for NSO Grants
Each member receives additional benefits from one of our five national societies:
When you join NSO, you also become a member of one of our national societies. Which one? That’s up to you! Each national society provides its own benefits, including discounts to national conferences. Learn more about us at nordicsocietyoikos.org.
