Alien Ecology

The study of the complex, interconnected web of life on a non-terrestrial world, operating under fundamentally different physical and chemical rules. It’s not just a catalog of weird plants and animals; it’s understanding how energy flows, nutrients cycle, and species co-evolve in an environment with, for example, a methane-based solvent, triple suns, or a silicate-based biology. The core principles of competition and symbiosis may apply, but the rulebook—the biochemistry, the food chains, the planetary rhythms—is utterly foreign.

Example: The world of Pandora in Avatar is a fictional study in Alien Ecology, with its neural network connecting all flora and fauna (Eywa), its floating mountains supported by magnetic fields, and its creatures linked through biological interfaces. A real scientific version would involve modeling how hypothetical sulfur-metabolizing microbes on Europa might form a subsurface ecosystem entirely disconnected from sunlight.
