Ecosystem Function and Ecosystem Management
1997Surely the most sobering, if not daunting, lesson to emerge from millennia of natural resource use and a century of ecological study is that the laws of conservation of mass and energy apply to the ecological systems we depend upon for natural resources and to the environmental conditions that shape the quality of our lives.

It has been discussed in Section 2.3 that ecosystems are inconceivably complex and that it will be impossible to produce a description of ecosystem properties that encompasses all the details. Therefore as discussed in Chapter 3, ecological models will always be very simplified pictures of the real ecosystems and can only impinge on a very limited ...

2005 IEEE International Conference on Services Computing (SCC'05) Vol-1, 2005
Summary form only given. Services businesses have become very exciting growth opportunities for the industry. How to design, model, and implement business services using IT technology is becoming a challenging issue. With the introduction of service-oriented architecture (SOA) and Web services, componentizing enterprises and services based on patterns ...

There is now compelling evidence that microbially mediated reactions impart a significant effect upon the dynamics, composition, and abundance of nutrients in glacial melt water. Consequently, we must now consider ice masses as ecosystem habitats in their own right and address their diversity, functional potential, and activity as part of alpine and ...

Stability criteria and phase boundaries for complex ecosystems are obtained and contrasted with previously studied scenarios. The stability of such systems is determined by the behaviour of the largest eigenvalue of matrices governing the response of the system to small perturbations.

I propose to discuss some of the roles that fungi may play in terrestrial ecosystems because it is clear from recent work that the magnitude of their intervention in nutrient and energy cycling may be very great. Although fungi are highly diverse and intervene in many different ways, many of the methods at present in use to describe their activities ...
