On an international scale Polish ecology has made its greatest achievements in the following fields: 1) population studies (elaboration of an original concept of a population as arealecological unit); 2) biocenosis studies (elaboration or development of a large numberof concepts as to biocenosis structure and the mechanisms controlling it); 3) bioenergetics of different organisms; 4) productivity of ecosystems (definition of valueand sometimes mechanisms of production, consumption andPoland has made a very important contribution to work under theBiological Programme.
