EcoSEM
A simplified and highly visual representation of the different cause-and-effect relationships among the environmental components from which ecosystem function and services emerge.
Metric of Habitat Function
Assesses and visualises the capacity of benthic habitats to sustain key ecosystem functions across the seascape. Standardises the potential contribution of processes such as nutrient cycling, primary production, bioturbation and carbon storage.
Ecological interaction networks
Based on known food-web interactions and highlights the relationship between structure (eg. topology) and functioning (energy fluxes) in marine ecological communities.
Multi-scale TBA
Traits are the life-behaviours of organisms (from single-celled plankton to large mammals). Their feeding and living modes are determined by their biological structure and combine to determine overall ecosystem function.
