Option 1

 * Article title: Sustainability
 * Article Evaluation: This article on sustainability is relatively robust. There is a lot of information on the definition of sustainability and the sectors of study that it incorporates. However, I see the most room for expansion in the solutions section of the article. This section is not as well developed as the others. This makes sense because that is the most difficult part of sustainability to understand, but concepts like forecasting conditions, working cross culturally, and creative development could be elaborated on here.

Option 2

 * Article title: Evolutionary Ecology
 * Article Evaluation: The article on evolutionary ecology has the majority of the foundation in place. However, there is room for expansion in each of the categories, especially when it comes to more current research endeavors such as the work described in Jonathan and Carroll's books. There should also be more detail added to each of the overviews of the evolutionary ecologists in the article.

Option 3

 * Article title: Cultural Ecology
 * Article Evaluation: Again, like some of the other articles, this one is quite robust but could stand to include more information on the ways in which landscapes affect culture. There is an exchange that occurs as landscape impacts culture, which in turn impacts landscape. Specifically, I would include discourse on borders and isolation in this article.

Option 4

 * Article title: Ecological Resilience
 * Article Evaluation: To this article, I would expand on the theory section and on many of the case studies listed already. I would also discuss more about how resilience is modeled and that because such models are crucial for forecasting, they may provide the foundation for the development of future policy.

Option 5

 * Article title: Population Ecology
 * Article Evaluation: The population dynamics section of this article needs further expansion. Additionally, I would add a section on human population dynamics. I would also expand the fisheries section to include more recent research.
