Understanding Complex Ecosystem Dynamics: A Systems and Engineering Perspective takes a fresh, interdisciplinary perspective on complex system dynamics, beginning with a description of pertinent systems, engineering skills, and practices that includes an explanation of the systems approach and its major elements. From this perspective, the author formulates an ecosystem dynamics functionality-based framework to guide ecological investigations. . In addition, the text covers the characteristics of ecological network dynamics¿the basis for the central hypothesis of the book¿including discussions on how ecological networks are ever-changing networks with propagation dynamics that are punctuated, local-to-global, and perhaps most importantly fractal.
