Understanding and predicting how ecological systems will respond to rapidly changing and novel conditions is a key task of modern ecology. Individual-based Ecology (IBE) embraces basic and applied, as well as empirical and theoretical research, as theory and models must emerge from real situations and provide answers that can support mitigation and management decisions. IBE, therefore, invites theoretical and empirical contributions that incorporate data or novel insights about individual organisms and their interactions that are relevant for explaining system-level dynamics and responses to ongoing and accelerating change.

The journal encourages comprehensive and synthetic papers and those utilizing modern techniques. Case studies of interesting phenomena are also appropriate, as long as they are contextualized in terms of their significance to orthopterology and entomology in general. Alongside original research, JOR also publishes review articles, short communications, and articles focusing on policy and management of Orthoptera. Two issues are printed annually, and members of the Orthopterists’ Society publish free (excluding color signature fees for images to be printed in color).
