Interactions between populations, determined by specific genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, is the primary focus of community ecology Community ecology has its origin in European plant sociology. Modern community ecology examines patterns such as variation in species richness, equitability, productivity and food web structure; it also examines processes such as predator-prey population dynamics, succession, and community assembly.
Patterns and processes in turn can be considered in terms of space and time, at different scales source: wikipedia.
