  • Analysis of the epistemological and ontological assumptions present in three ecological investigations at the mar chiquita coastal lagoon regarding the invasive polychaete f. enigmaticus.In order to show the epistemological (empiricist, rationalist, racioempiricist) and ontological (individualistic, holistic, sistemist) assumptions present in ecological research, which often remain implicit, this paper analyzes three investigations in ecology made in the coastal lagoon of Mar Chiquita (37° 40’S, 57° 23’W, Argentina (Obenat 2001; Schwindt 2001; Bruschetti, et al., 2008), from an epistemological and ontological viewpoint. Those articles assess the ecological consecuences of an invasive species, the reef forming polychaete F. enigmaticus. The disadvantages of implementing purely rationalist or empiricist epistemologies in ecological research, and the advantages of using a racioempiricists one are shown here.
