The implication of the word ‘community‘ has changed from including all the organisms in an area to only those species at a particular trophic level (and often a taxonomically restricted group), for example, ‘bird-community‘. If this observation is correct, its probable cause is the dramatic growth in our knowledge of the ecological patterns along trophic levels (I call these horizontal patterns) and the processes that generate them. This book deals with vertical patterns - those across trophic levels -and tries to compensate for their relative neglect. In cataloging a dozen vertical patterns I hope to convince the reader that species interactions across trophic levels are as patterned as those along trophic levels and demand explanations equally forcefully. But this is not the only objective. A limited number of processes shape the patterns of species interaction; to demonstrate their existence is an essential step in understanding why ecosystems are the way they are. To achieve these aims I must resort to both mathematical techniques to develop theories and statistical techniques to decide between rival hypoth | | 出版日期 | Book 1982 | | 关键词 | complexity; ecosystem; energy; environment; growth; stability; statistics | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-009-5925-5 | | isbn_softcover | 978-94-009-5927-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-009-5925-5 | | copyright | Stuart L.
