Ecological diversity is a type of biodiversity. It is the variation in the ecosystems found in a region or the variation in ecosystems over the whole planet. Ecological diversity includes the variation in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Ecological diversity can also take into account the variation in the complexity of a biological community, including the number of different niches, the number of trophic levels and other ecological processes. An example of ecological diversity on a global scale would be the variation in ecosystems, such as deserts, forests, grasslands, wetlands and oceans. Ecological diversity is the largest scale of biodiversity, and within each ecosystem, there is a great deal of both species and genetic diversity.〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=study.com )〕 ==Examples== Some examples of ecosystems that are rich in diversity are: * Deserts * Forests * Large marine ecosystems * Marine ecosystems * Old growth forests * Rainforests * Tundra * Coral Reefs 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ecosystem diversity」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
