Environmental regulation in a network of simulated microbial ecosystems.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 29 Jul 2008

Williams Hywel T P, Lenton Timothy M

Abstract excerpt

The Earth possesses a number of regulatory feedback mechanisms involving life. In the absence of a population of competing biospheres, it has proved hard to find a robust evolutionary mechanism that would generate environmental regulation. It has been suggested that regulation must require altrui...
