Human disturbances affect the topology of food webs

https://youtu.be/N4D--Wj3JvM What do galaxies and molecular structures have in common? Or trade between countries, communications on the Internet, and trophic relationships within ecosystems? One answer is that they all involve nodes interconnected by flows of mass and energy. In other words, they are networks. The study of networks has revealed intriguing regularities. For example, it is . . . [ Read More ]
