Community Equality
concepts
community
group of species that occur together at the same time and place
succession
predictable sequence of changes
climax community
disturbed patch undergoes succession
community restoration
reintroducing species into a habitat
habitat loss
habitat fragmentation
predator-prey interactions
predator selection among prey
optimal foraging theory
examine the interactions between the factors to understand why herbivores eat plants
optimal diet model
produced by optimal forging theory
#
four different predictions
one predator, one prey
paradox enrichment
improving conditions for prey
may lead to overexploiting prey
both species could be lost
prey dependent
predator's functional response is dependent on the amount of prey
primary producer plant is attacked by predator
zero growth isocline
line inidicating stability
competitions between species
exploitation competition
when organisms eat shared respources
when species compete for the same resource
interference competition
one organism restricts another
diversity
diversity and scale
species area relationship
formula
S=cA^z
relationship between area and species richenes
larger scale = more diverse
smaller scale = less diverse
species abundance distribution
beneficial interactions between species
mutualistic relationship
both species benefit
metapopulations in patchy environments
metapopulation
several populations are interconnected by migration and gene flow
interconnectedness of species
food chains and food webs
energy flow web
how energy flows through the community
food chain
direct line of consumption
food web
intercorrelation of consumption relationships
