Community ecology focuses on relationships between species, including the study of Food Webs , Energy Flow , and Nutrient Flow . Odum (1959, p. 8) considered that synecology should be divided into ''population ecology'', ''community ecology'', and ''ecosystem ecology'', which suggests that Autecology would not be precisely synonymous with ''population ecology''. However, biologists have for some time since recognized that the most important level of organization of a species is its population, because at this level the Gene Pool is most coherent. Community ecology has its origin in Europe an plant sociology. Modern community ecology examines Process es such as Predator - Prey Population Dynamics , Succession , and community assembly. SEE ALSO
