Species, matter, and energy are common features of all ecological systems. Through the lens of complex adaptive systems thinking, the authors explore how the inextricable relationship between species, matter, and energy can explain how systems are structured, and how they persist in real and model systems UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780198566182.001.0001 ER -
