Environmental biology (7)

I believe the answer is:

ecology

(Other definitions for ecology that I've seen before include "Scientific study of living things in their environment" , "Study of organisms and their surroundings" , "Bionomics" , "Branch of biology" , "Study of living things in relation to environment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
