Chapter 54, Problem 1ITD
Summary Introduction
To review:
The control of algal productivity in the presence of herbivores, the addition of nutrients, or a combination of both.
Introduction:
The dry weight of a plant material per unit area, or volume in a habitat, is its biomass. Net productivity is the rate at which new biomass is produced. Productivity depends on temperature, availability of water, and nutrients. The interactions between the trophic levels also control productivity in an ecosystem.
