The Ramon Margalef Prize in Ecology (Catalan: Premi Ramon Margalef d'Ecologia) is a prize awarded annually by the Generalitat de Catalunya to recognize an exceptional scientific career or discovery in the field of ecology or other environmental sciences. The award was created to honor the life and work of Ramon Margalef.
