All components are linked together through energy flow, some cycles (for example, nutrient cycles in biology), and their environment. The point of interconnection between all elements and the environment is of the highest importance in an ecosystem and this is the thing that distinguishes a s...

The most prominent biological group, in terms of biomass and energy flow in the system, was the herbivorous zooplankton. A large proportion (>75%) of matter at trophic level II flows through herbivorous zooplankton, infauna, and herbivorous fish, whereas 88% of the flow of carnivorous ...
There are three primary methodologies for assessing ecosystem service value: energy analysis, physical assessment, and valuation assessment(Cui 2005). Valuation assessment includes two approaches: the functional price method and the equivalent coefficients table method. The latter, unlike the functional pric...
Ecosystem functioning depends on biodiversity at multiple trophic levels, yet relationships between multitrophic diversity and ecosystem multifunctionality have been poorly explored, with studies often focusing on individual trophic levels and functions
After a long time gone I’m slowly getting back into business but with a lot of energy Introduction These past weeks I’ve been solving a couple of coding challenges and for one of them I thought (and I still think) that the best solution would be achieved by using a Graph Db (can...
At the landscape level, improper management of land results in changes in the land cover structure that directly affect the flow of energy, water, and greenhouse gases [14]. For example, deforestation decreases the evaporation of water, leading to less cloud formation, less precipitation, and ...
Ecological processes such as water cycling and energy exchange of ecosystem services are affected by different land-use types; ecological functions such as climate regulation, disturbance resistance, erosion control, and sediment retention of ecosystems are affected by land-use patterns; and the ecosystem...
