Two Notions of Ecological Function
Philosophia Scientiæ, 2022This paper discusses Millstein’s (2020) criticism of the consensus view formed against selected-effects ecological functions. I argue that Millstein’s defense of coevolution-based selected-effects ecological functions applies to a notion of function as ...

Functional Ecology of Forest Disease
Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2020Global change is pressing forest pathologists to solve increasingly complex problems. We argue that understanding interactive effects between forest pathogens and global warming, globalization, and land-use changes may benefit from a functional ecology mindset.

Efficient ecological function optimization for endoreversible Carnot heat pumps
Journal of Non-Equilibrium ThermodynamicsAccording to the definition of exergy-based efficient ecological-function (EBEEF) which is proposed as product of exergy-based ecological-function (EF) and coefficient of performance (COP) in previous literature, this paper applies the EBEEF to analyze ...

Health Is a Function of Ecology
AJN, American Journal of Nursing, 1971There are numerous ways of classifying illness, such as by etiology, manifestations or treatment. Likewise, there are a variety of ways in which health factors can be classified. The following are a few of the classifications of health factors: external-internal milieu; genotypicphenotypic factors and mechanisms; psychologic-biologic or psychosomatic ...

Avian Diversity: Speciation, Macroevolution, and Ecological Function
Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution and Systematics, 2020The origin, distribution, and function of biological diversity are fundamental themes of ecology and evolutionary biology. Research on birds has played a major role in the history and development of these ideas, yet progress was for many decades limited ...

Complementarity of Ecological Goal Functions
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2001This paper summarizes, in the framework of network environ analysis, a set of analyses of energy-matter flow and storage in steady-state systems. The network perspective is used to codify and unify ten ecological orientors or extremal principles: maximum power (Lotka), maximum storage (Jørgensen-Mejer), maximum empower and emergy (Odum), maximum ...
