Ecosystem Entanglement and the Propagation of Nutrient-Driven Instability

2020-04-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Almost 50 years ago, Michael Rosenzweig pointed out that nutrient addition can destabilize food webs, leading to loss of species and reduced ecosystem function through the paradox of enrichment. Around the same time, David Tilman demonstrated that increased nutrient loading would also be expected to cause competitive exclusion leading to deleterious changes in food web diversity. While both conc...
